A special event's being held today for Wawa residents, particularly former Algoma Ore Division workers.
Noting this year marks 25 years since the local operations shut down, organizer Andy Stevens explains today's AOD open house is an opportunity to socialize.
Stevens notes the event also includes information for those retirees but also about the historic impact on this community.
Free of charge, the AOD Open House runs from 1 pm to 4 pm this afternoon at the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre - Wawa Transit service to the event is also free.
