Manager Sarah Benson is building anticipation and heightening suspense by revealing only a few details about all the Silver City treasures that will soon be available for public viewing, like this 1948 Dominion Curling Championship Plaque from the MacDonald’s Brier Tankard won by Frenchy D’Amour, Jim Mark, Fred Wendel, Bob McGhie.
