There is a bit of summer work to do at the Giant Mine heritage site and we could use your help! To keep this area a fun and friendly place for residents and visitors to Yellowknife, the NWT Mining Heritage Society is proposing a work party on the evening of September 14 (Wednesday) after 5:30pm. Meet us at the parking lot to the Boat Launch to find out how you can help.
