JOB OPPORTUNITIES:
Archivist Position,
Spruce Grove and District Agricultural Heritage Society, Spruce Grove, AB
Compensation: $28 – $39/hour
The Spruce Grove and District Agricultural Heritage Society is a non-profit organization, formed in 1972. We provide facilities, programs and events that bring people together to celebrate agriculture’s influence on the past, present and future of our community. One of our goals is to preserve the history of the community and keep that history alive for both present and future generations. In 1995 the Society purchased the Alberta Wheat Pool grain elevator and the land it resides upon. This building has since become a Provincial Historic Resource. In 2001 the Society acquired and renovated a building so that the newly established Archives of Spruce Grove could preserve the community’s history. Over the years the volunteer managed archives collection has outgrown its space, and a move of the collection is imminent.
