Dramatic Reduction in our Funding Dear Friends The Covid-19 Pandemic continues to affect life in Alberta; the health crisis and the resulting economic crisis have reached into every aspect of endeavour in the province.

To the members and supporters of the Historical Society of Alberta.

Dear Friends,

The H.S.A. AGM scheduled for Saturday May 23rd, 2020 in Lacombe was postponed to September 26, 2020 and will be hosted online. Members were contacted and registration is now complete.

Everyone is no doubt aware of the extraordinary health crisis that is distressing the entire world. As well, the various restrictions placed on public assembly, meetings and travel by the Government of Canada, the Province of Alberta, and many municipalities and local authorities, deserve the active support of all Albertans, as we all wish to do our part to overcome this unprecedented situation.
