In July 2014, Margaret Axford - Curator of the Cloyne Pioneer Museum and Archives was asked by the Friends of Bon Echo to give a presentation to Park visitors about Bon Echo's history.

Margaret explains little known details how Bon Echo became a retreat for the wealthy then suffered hard times during the depression years. Follow the lives of these influential people through a series of seldom seen photographs until the day Bon Echo became one of the greatest gifts to the people of Ontario. Get the entire presentation on DVD! Run time is 44 minutes. Available at the Cloyne Pioneer Museum Online Bookstore: www.cloynepioneermuseum.ca
