In celebration of Pictou County's rich coal mining history, The Museum of Industry, the Westray Families Group and the Town of Stellarton invite you to join them in a special day of celebrations dedicated to the lives and history of Nova Scotian coal mines and miners. The day begins at 11 am at the Miners Monument in Stellarton with the annual Davis Day Memorial Service. Held since 1924, this service commemorates the death of coal miner Bill Davis, killed by coal company police during a confrontation with striking miners. Families and friends attend the service as an opportunity to remember their loved ones who toiled in Nova Scotian coal mines. Following the service, a light reception will be held at the Museum of Industry.
