     ADELAIDE HOODLESS HOMESTEAD 
     
    
   
   
    
     The Adelaide Hoodless Homestead was purchased and furnished 
     
     by F.W.I.C. and is maintained as an Historic Site. One of the major 
     
     projects of the Triennium 1976-1979 was the construction of live-in 
     
     quarters for the hostess thereby allowing for the restoration of the 
     
     kitchen, pantry and upstairs areas of the F.W.I.C. National Museum to 
     
     its original state. The restored portion now makes room for displays of 
     
     artifacts previously stored in the basement. Over 200 people attended 
     
     the opening of the new wing on June 1, 1979. 
     
    
   
   
    
     A Hoodless Homestead Foundation Fund was established to mark 
     
     F.W.I.C.’s 60th Anniversary. Members and friends of the Institute 
     
     were invited to make personal gifts to make the fund sufficient to 
     
     maintain the Homestead in a manner befitting a National Museum.

     the International Peace Gardens Situated on the Manitoba-North Dakota 
     
     border. The Gardens continue to expand both in facilities and programs. 
     
     Delegates attending the 1970 Convention in Winnipeg had the opportunity
