Devereaux House is a restored, circa 1860 Victorian farmhouse in Georgetown, the main floor of which is available to rent for meetings and receptions. Due to the number of Silverâ€"Wood WI Members, the Branch could not easily be accommodated in homes, so for monthly meetings they rented the main floor of Devereaux House, which includes the kitchen, dining room and parlour. Over time, the Branch developed a partnership agreement with the Friends of Devereaux House Board in which they would undertake certain responsibilities in lieu of paying rent. This past year, Branch Members have weeded the flowerbeds, cleaned and decorated the main floor for the Christmas season, and catered the annual Mother’s Day Tea. Both Silverâ€"Wood WI (Wellingtonâ€"Halton District, Guelph Area) and The Friends of Devereaux House Board are jointly committed to the use and maintenance of this heritage building for the education and enjoyment of the residents of Halton Hills.
