Cornwall JailThe Counties, Ontario – At its regular meeting yesterday, County Council authorized an agreement with the SD&G Historical Society to provide tours of the Cornwall jail beginning this summer.

The historic Cornwall jail was built in 1834 and remained operational until 2002. The jail walls have been witness to many lost souls during its operation; housing criminals guilty of committing misdemeanors to violent crimes.

SD&G Historical Society will include the historic Cornwall jail as part of its existing museum tours. In partnership with the County, the SD&G Historical Society is excited about this new opportunity. “The SD&G Historical Society is proud to be a partner with the United Counties of SDG in the promotion and preservation of this very important historic building and its story,” stated museum curator Ian Bowering. The jail site is of great historic significance, and the SD&G Historical Society will provide many interesting stories and facts as part of the tour of this facility.

For more information about the SD&G Historical Society and special events/activities please contact: Cornwall Community Museum at 613-936-0280 or email [email protected].

Shelley Roy, Coordinator with the Canadian Red Cross RespectED: Violence and Abuse Prevention Program presents a Be Safe! kit to Elyse Alguire of KOALA Place. Be Safe! is just one of the RespectED programs available in our community.  The Be Safe! kit is part of a personal safety program designed for children ages 5-9 to equip them with the knowledge and skills they  need to help protect themselves from sexual abuse.  The kit includes everything needed to deliver the program in a positive, child-friendly and non-threatening way. “Keeping children safe is the most important thing we do as educators and parents.  In order to do this, we must provide our kids with the skills they need to protect themselves from sexual abuse, as well as give them an understanding of their right to protect their own body”, says Shelley Roy.  The RespectED program is supported by funding from the United Way of Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry.
