COLLECTION IN DUTCH IMMIGRATION: Looking for a place for those old letters and photos? Please don’t throw them away! The purpose of the new Gerry Segger Heritage Collection at King’s College is to collect, preserve, and share materials related to the Dutch experience in Canada and to the Dutch and German traditions of the Reformed faith in this country. Boxes of old documents, letters, and photographs might not have much apparent value, but they are invaluable for future historians, for future members of this community, and for people of Dutch descent who wish to understand and cherish their pasts. These are the sources from which we can tell and remember our stories, and share them with future generations. If you have documents you’d be willing to donate (letters, photos, diaries, journals, memoirs, immigration or business records, etc.) or if you wish to know more about the Heritage Collection, please contact us at [email protected] or call Bonita Schalk Bjornson at 780-465-3500 ext- 8054
