Project Description

Camp Borden was opened on July 11, 1916 by the Minister of Militia and Defence Major General Sir Sam Hughes, KCB, MP. In the 1930’s the Base became the headquarters of the first armoured school, headed by the then Major F.F. Worthington. Other schools were soon added to the base making it the most important training Base in Canada. 

 

Base Borden, one of Canada’s largest Military Museums, holds a significant collection of WWI, WWII and post-war armoured vehicles, trucks and aircraft. The main museum tells the story of Camp Borden and the various schools, Corps and Branches that have their heritage vested at Canadian Forces Base Borden. 

 

The OtherHalf is supporting the Museum Director in reviewing the bylaws of the Friends of the Museum charity which supports the museum, in order to comply with the Canada Not-for-profit Corporation Act legislation.
