    Notes:

    ....The First World War and prohibition law combined to close the Rock Brewery (and many other Ontario breweries) in 1916.

    Peter Bernhardt revived the plant in the 1920s with the help of U.S. investors, but it closed for good in 1933.

    A few years later, he leased the old stable for $1 to the 1st Preston Scout Troop after being approached by scout leader Wilf Blum, a young pharmacist then working at the Spencer Dalton Drug Store on Queen's Square in Galt.

    Blum soon had the scouts renovating the stable. And in 1938, despite knowing little about music, he started the Preston Scout House Band, initially limited to Preston scouts.

    Over the next 30 years the band would soar in stature and perform before thousands at major events across North America.....
