At the Janusary meeting 1959 the members approved of a request of the Metropolitan Area Conservation Authority (Mr. Ken Higgs) to make the old log house in the Albion Hills Conservation Park an historical centre. on April 18, 1961 Mr. Colucci, curator for the Metro and Region Conservation Authority, spoke to the meeting on the furnishing and opersation of the house.

Mrs. Charles Kehoe, president, received the key from Mr. Roderick Johnston, reeveof Albion Townshin and Warden of Peel County. Quring the summer, members in turn acted as hostesses at the house on Saturday, Sunday and holidays, from two to five p.m. On July 4, 1Q62, to celebrate Coronation‘s 25th Anniversary year, the members of North Peel Women‘ts Institutes were entertained at the log house. Much interest was shown in the antique furnishings of the kitchen, parlor and two bedrooms, also the costumes of yesterâ€"year, as worn by the local members. When the Akbion Hills Conservation School began using the log house in its teaching program and for overnight accommodation, the W. I. members felt it was not feasible as a museum for displsay to the public. It was decided in June 1966 to discontinue as hostess snd remove their furnishings and articles displayed in the cabin. As a result, the log house remained closed during the 1966 summer season.
