KITCHENER – Mayor
Carl Zehr and members of council will celebrate 100 years of cityhood
by placing a centennial time capsule, presented by Superior Memorials,
at the Duke Street gardens at Kitchener city hall on Monday, June 10 at 4 p.m. They
will dedicate the capsule at this public ceremony and declare an
official date for the time capsule to be opened in the future.
All
residents are invited to the grand finale of the Kitchener 100
celebrations and to sign the centennial signature scroll. The event will
include highlights of the year-long celebrations, live music and
displays in the rotunda. Refreshments will be provided so we can all
“toast the time capsule.”
“This
is a great way to conclude our centennial celebrations from the past
year. It gives us a unique opportunity to look back at how our community
came together and celebrated our city, and a chance to leave our legacy
for those who come after us through the time capsules,” said Jeff
Young, manager of special events.
After
the time capsule ceremony join us inside the rotunda to share in the
excitement of our world record for the longest picnic. You can have your
picture taken with the Guinness World Record certificate, enjoy live
entertainment and refreshments.
The festivities begin at 5 p.m.
