Allan Spragg and Cathy McGirr

Allan Spragg, owner of Turtle Crossing & The Bear Factory toy store in Port Elgin, presented a $1,000 donation to the Bruce County Museum and Cultural Centre on Tuesday, August 11.

Cathy McGirr, Business Manager for the Museum, accepted the donation and explained that the Museum is fortunate in its partnerships with businesses like Turtle Crossing. "We have some of the best corporate sponsors," says McGirr. "Turtle Crossing sponsors our Wonders & Wizardry children's programming and this summer has been particularly busy because the Museum has exhibits, such as the Dinosaurs, that are especially appealing to children."
