Canadian Battlefields Tour Update

The King Township Historical Society has decided not to proceed with the proposed Canadian Battlefields Tour: Paris to Amsterdam at this time.

During the launch process, information came to light regarding the tour arrangements that required further review. After careful consideration, the KTHS determined that it was in the best interests of both the Society and its members to withdraw the tour before registrations began.

We recognize that many members expressed interest in this exciting opportunity, and we sincerely appreciate your enthusiasm and support. While we are disappointed that this particular tour will not be moving forward, we remain committed to offering high-quality programs and experiences that reflect the standards and expectations of our membership.

The KTHS will continue to explore other similarly priced trip options for September 2027, more information to follow   

Thank you for your understanding and your continued support of the King Township Historical Society.
