Forged in Fire is a collaborative project between the Kingston Marine Museum and RMC museum exploring the maritime contributions of Kingston and area to the Second World War. But, they need your help to tell the story and are looking to speak with naval veterans of the Second World War and their descendants to help capture and share the story of Kingston and the Area’s community contributions to the war effort. This could include anecdotes, letters, photographs and/or any other artefacts that might be relevant.

The North Bay Baseball Association (NBBA) has been closely monitoring the Covid-19 pandemic situation, taking guidance from the Ontario Baseball Association (OBA) as well as following provincial guidelines. At this time, there has not been any indication that fields will be open early enough, if at all, to provide a typical baseball season. With this in mind, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 season.
