The Burlington Historical Society is shining a light on one of Canada’s great inventions at its next speaker night on Tuesday, October 14. Local historian and collector Mike Twiss will share stories of P.L. Robertson, the Milton inventor who revolutionized manufacturing with his square-socket screw design.

Held at the Burlington Central Library, the talk explores how Robertson’s innovation shaped local industry and why his legacy still matters today. Guests can even enter to win a gift card.

The Great Pumpkin Trail is back at the Royal Botanical Gardens, lighting up Hendrie Valley with thousands of glowing jack-o-lanterns. Families can wander the illuminated paths Oct. 16–19 and 24–26, enjoying the cozy magic of fall surrounded by twinkling pumpkins and crisp evening air.

For grown-ups, the RBG After Dark: Pumpkin Trail on Oct. 23 promises a spirited night stroll with an adults-only twist. With 10,000 real pumpkins arranged in creative displays, this year’s event is shaping up to be the most enchanting yet.
