66 Main Street

June 7, 2018

I thought I would update you on what is happening at 66 Main Street. A group of us met with the developer yesterday to discuss the protection of the heritage home. He took us on a tour of the house which is currently full of trash. He will be inviting the Heritage Advisory Committee and the Museum to tour the place as well. There are some beautiful interior features but the restoration will be a lot of work. The developer is not only happy to do the restoration but is eager to see the house assume its former grandeur.

Heritage in King Township

April 5, 2018

When I moved to Schomberg I was attracted by the heritage character of the village, especially Main Street, and could see all the potential for a healthy vibrant community. The village was unique and charming and seemed like a little oasis in the otherwise urbanising landscape. Heritage character is what makes our communities distinctive and alive, reflecting the traditions, history and life of the people who once lived there.

The villages and hamlets of King have many properties and structures of heritage significance. In fact, places like Main Street Schomberg and Kettleby are defined by their heritage character. So what does it mean to own a heritage property in King Township?

Tell me what’s great about our community.

Welcome

My name is Mary Asselstine and I have lived in Schomberg since 1985. Through those years I have raised my family and have volunteered in my community. I have always been interested in what makes community work … the people, the character, the events, the opportunities, the politics and the history. I have seen a lot of changes since I moved to King Township, especially over the last 10 years. In this Blog I want to examine what is happening in our communities and what is driving change (for better or for worse). I encourage you to join me on this adventure to inform, consider, envision and advocate for a future that we can be happy with and proud of.
Mary
