On Victoria Day afternoon, May 20, the Grist Mill Heritage Club will host an open mike musical event in the gardens of the Grist Mill Historic Site at 2691 Upper Bench Road in Keremeos.
Admission to the historic site will be free on Victoria Day which is opening day for the 2013 season.
Historic Site hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., seven days a week. Regular admission is $7 and $5 for students and Seniors.
The Grist Mill Heritage Club is volunteer and a non-profit committee of the Grist Mill Foundation.
