We look forward to throwing open our doors in April, rested, refreshed and eager to show off our fine collection showcasing the history of electricity in Alberta.
We anticipate opening for the Volunteer Expo in April, the Spring Fire-up in May, the Leduc West Annual Exposition in July, and finally in September the Country Harvest and the Lesco Truck Show. Exact dates will be announced in late February. Watch this space! Plus we are availble for private tours in the summer - just contact us from this web site; We'd LOVE to see you!
