COVID-19 Business Response Survey

The Brockville Museum’s mandate is to capture Brockville stories. As we are currently living through a major event in history, we have the responsibility to record these events for future generations. We are reaching out to the community to gather the local stories and experiences of the Covid-19 pandemic. Throughout the pandemic, Ontario businesses have supported their communities by helping in various ways to stop the spread of Covid-19. As a local Brockville business, we would love to hear from you about your experiences during these challenging times. We have prepared a brief questionnaire which will be placed in our research files for future research/exhibit purposes.  We hope that you will take a moment to complete this questionnaire and return it to the museum by email or mail.  Thank you for being a part of history!

9.If your business was able to do something to “give back” or support the community during the crisis, please share details, including what you did and why you felt it was important.
10.Additional Comments: Please feel free to add any additional comments or information that you feel comfortable sharing that may be of interest to future Brockvillians interested in learning more about this experience. Please feel free to include photos. If you have a COVID-19 specific object that you might be willing to donate to the museum, please list it here and we will be in touch.
