SUMMARY:Heritage York Heritage Talks: Misadventure on the Humber
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, August 7\, 1968\, an event occurred on the Humber River that resonates in the Warren Park community to this day\, 52 years later! That event made the front page of the citywide newspapers. The Globe and Mail trumpeted the headline ‘Four girls\, dog\, wade into deep troubles’ – the front page of the Toronto Daily Star carried a picture of a terrified girl with the by line ‘3 Hours Of Terror On The Humber’ with an accompanying dedicated page of pictures and captions with the headline ‘Raging Humber maroons 4 terror-stricken girls.’ Not to be out done\, The Telegram quoted one of the girls ‘I Can’t Do It\, I’m Afraid.’ \nWhat was the dire event that captured the headlines that fateful day in August on the Humber River? In this short documentary\, we will explore the events of that day as seen through the eyes of surviving participants. Through interviews\, photographs and other media\, including a previously unseen short 8MM film of that day\, one will understand how a simple misadventure became a seminal moment for everyone involved. Check out our preview teaser HERE. \n\nAttention all history enthusiasts and heritage lovers! \nWe are delighted to invite you to our monthly heritage talks\, where we delve into a wide range of topics that showcase the rich and diverse cultural heritage of our local\, provincial\, and national history.
