Open on Canada Day, July 1st at noon

Mrs. Nicholson Home will open on Saturday, July 1st at noon.

We will be attending the Town Proclamation at 11:30 am at the Town Hall.

Annapolis Royal is welcoming 10 delegates from our twin city of Royan, France – the birthplace of Pierre Du Gua, founder of Port Royal in 1605.

At the Town Hall, there will be an exchange of Town flags and the singing of O Canada followed by the French national anthem – La Marseillaise.

We hope you will join us here in Annapolis Royal for all the Canada Day events.

There will be entertainment all day long at our new amphitheatre including music and a play. The outdoor pool is offering a FREE swim from 1 to 4 pm. The community band will be giving a concert on the Fort grounds at 12:30. The Historic Gardens will be free all day and the Town will be giving away lobster rolls to the first 500 people on the wharf at 4:30. And, of course, it is market day!

Be sure to visit the birthplace of Canada on this special Canada Day 150!

Syrocco wall clock

This amazing battery-operated Syrocco sun burst wall clock is from 1968 and is made of plastic.

It seems like they sell for quite a bit of money when they are in perfect working order. We found the exact same one for sale on 1stdibs for over $700 US.

But you can purchase ours for $125!

The clock looks fabulous: no cracks and the glass front is intact.

It does not, however, actually work :-(. The hour hand slips and will not stay in place so it needs a little work.

But even in non-working order, it is a great piece of vintage wall art!
