Community Event -- Mystery in the Museum...

Delta Museum & Archives has a Mystery to Solve

 

Delta, BC -- Are you searching for adventure this Spring Break?  The 
Delta Museum & Archives is looking for sleuths to solve the latest 
Mystery in the Museum and capture the bandits behind the robbery of the 
stage coach robbery.

 

The year is 1860, gold has been discovered on the Fraser River and 
thousands of men and women are hoping to strike it rich!  Unfortunately 
the greed for gold is bringing the chaos and lawlessness of the Wild 
West to the brand new colony of British Columbia.  A stage coach has 
been robbed at gunpoint and $15,000 worth of gold is missing.  Can you 
help capture the bandits and return the gold to its rightful owner?

 

This popular fun-filled adventure is offered by the Delta Museum & 
Archives during Spring Break and is a self-guided drop-in program.  To 
solve the case you will follow the clues and uncover evidence throughout 
the Museum.  As you move from clue to clue, the evidence you discover at 
each crime scene will bring you closer to solving this year's Mystery in 
the Museum.

 

The Museum will be open March 18 to 20 and March 25 to 29 from 10:00am 
to 4:30pm.  Please allow a minimum of one hour to collect all the 
evidence and solve the crime.  Children under 12 years of age must be 
accompanied by an adult.  Cost is $5.00 per clue kit.

 

The Delta Museum and Archives is located in the heart of Ladner Village 
at 4858 Delta Street.  For further information, please call 604-946-9322.

 

Established in 1969, the Delta Museum and Archives is a not-for-profit 
society whose mission is to capture, research and preserve stories, 
records and objects of Delta; promote community identity and facilitate 
access to our community's rich history and diverse culture through
