50th Anniversary

Celebrating 50 years of supporting the preservation of Victoria Hall as Cobourg’s architectural gem! On June 23rd, 2025, Victoria Hall Volunteers gathered for a garden party to celebrate their 50th year as a charitable organization. The event included delicious food (Prep Food Company), wine, stunning flower arrangements and decor, photo albums, scrapbooks, a video highlighting events over the years, live entertainment (Fabián Arciniegas Voice and Studio, and Mitchell Cox), speeches from our current president, Donna Londry, from Lucas Cleveland, Mayor of Cobourg, from Trisha Essery, our Historical and Document Librarian, and from June Mackenzie as she presented a plaque to be installed in the foyer of the hall.  Our founding members and past presidents were recognized, and there was a special shout out to Jennifer Hagen, daughter of Marion Hagen, the woman who started the momentum that became VHV.
