From ‘Rileys’ To Rum Runners

Furey-Mooney-1919Ford-20150618-1280Our Historical Walking Tours are off to a fine start – thanks to all our supporters in Hamilton, Dundas & Port Dover – and special thanks to Tourism Hamilton (who’ve been doing a stellar job), Ontario Tourism and the Hamilton Spectator! A special mention to Kenny & John who are Rockin’ The Waterfront for the 20th year in a row! Drop by and see all the classic cars, live entertainment and much more! It’s free to visit, but do support the fundraising if you’re able.

Thursday night (7:30pm at James N. and Mulberry – in front of the Armouries) we feature JAMES ST. NORTH,  where Missus Mooney & Michael Furey will point out stories of the sacred and the profane…with appropriate amounts of humour tossed in for good measure.

Saturday morning (10:30am) we sail to the shores PORT DOVER as Capt. John Swallow & QM Seika Hellbound regale you with tales of  Moon Cussing, Monsters and Mobsters – right on the shores of the shallowest – and possibly most dangerous – Great Lake!

Be sure to register early – and bring a friend or two!
