Taylor Tofield Historical Society President's Annual Report April 2021 2021: The 60th Anniversary of the Tofield Historical Society Mary E. Taylor "Our museums are vital cultural hubs. They bring history, heritage and art together, but more importantly, they bring people together. The story of our province is broad, full of knowledge and connects to the world." Honourable Leela Sharon Aheer, Minister of Culture, Multi culturalism and Status of Women (Alberta Museums Association 2020 Annual Report) In 1961, a group of interested citizens established the Tofield Historical Society and the Tofield Museum. These pioneers established the foundation of an organization that could preserve the history of Tofield and surrounding areas for many years to come. The year 2021 will be the 60th year of operation of the Tofield Historical Society and the Tofield Museum. This achievement was possible by the many volunteers of our community that believed in the importance of preserving the history of Tofield and surrounding communities. These communities are primarily identified by the school districts ofAmisk Creek, Anderson, Hastings Lake, Ketchamoot, Lakeshore, Lindbrook, Mackenzie, Spilstead, and Woodlawn. In the 1950s, when the County of Beaver, now known as Beaver County, was incorporated, these rural schools became part of the newly created county. While Anderson (now called Bardo Recreation Center), Spilstead, Hastings Lake and Lindbrook no longer exist as school districts, the residents of these areas maintain community halls and an active social life. Our annual meeting isa great time to take inventory of the contributions of our volunteers to our community. As I reflect on the 2020 operating year, I was privileged to be your president and to be involved in the many exciting projects that the society undertook. I am grateful for the continued support of our Tofield Historical Society (THS) Board of Directors and our volunteers. THS thanks all who served diligently on the Board. For all the meetings held in the past year, we were able to achieve a quorum so that no meetings were postponed due to lack of The 2020 year proved to be a challenge with many restrictions in place due to the COVID 19 pandemic. Visitors had to prearrange visits to the Tofield Museum by contacting the Town of Tofield office. These requests were redirected to Lorraine McNeely who contacted the visitors to arrange a suitable time for a guided tour. Sometimes, when Lorraine or I were working in the Nature Centre, visitors would arrive unannounced, expecting the Nature Centre and Tofield Museum to be open. On these occasions, Lorraine and I provided guide tours through the Nature Centre and the Tofield Museum. We requested that all visitors wear masks, sanitize their hands, and refrain from touching any of the exhibits. Fund raising proved to be a challenge as there were so few visitors to the Tofield Museum. In addition, THS was unable to sell many copies of Ta/es of Tofield 2. However, THS was able to secure the following grants to assist with three projects of the society: . The grant from Beaver County will enable THS to replace the singles on the roof of the AGT building and to install eaves to the roof extension. A donation from Busy B will assist with the repairs to the ACT building; . The grant of from Claystone Waste Ltd. will enable THS to reprint 100 copies of Ta/es of Tofield (2004). A donation from Wild Oats and Notes Music Festival will be used to assist with the printing of Ta/es of Tofield; and .
