Zorra Digitization Day Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 10am – 2pm!

Hello Everyone,
Please see this guest post from the Zorra Heritage Committee:

Do you have old photos, documents, memorabilia from growing up in Zorra or handed down by family in East Nissouri, Embro, North Oxford or West Zorra?

If yes, please consider making electronic copies – for extra security backup, for easier sharing, to use in scrapbooking or to include in family histories.

It’s wise to digitize!

Join the Zorra Heritage Committee and museum staff at Beachville District Museum on Saturday, October 25th from 10am-2pm for their third Digitization Day.

Community members are invited to bring up to 3 items to be digitized and returned to them along with copies of the digital files. Copies of the files will also be retained by Beachville District Museum as reference material.

Digitization of local, historical materials will help to ensure that important pieces of our local heritage are preserved for future research and the enjoyment of the next generations.

Advance registration is encouraged and can be completed online via the link found at https://beachvilledistrictmuseum.com/events/digday2025 or by the calling the museum at (519) 423-6497.
