- **Event Description**: Join Shelly McElroy  to learn about the man behind McKnight  Boulevard. Flying WWII ace pilot and important member of his family.About this EventIn 2025, Calgary marks its 150th anniversary, and in this presentation, we will meet a very significant Calgarian. “Willie” McKnight was the most outstanding Canadian ace in the first half of the Second World War. His short, outstanding career is the stuff of clickbait. He was also an important member of his family – and he lived right here in Calgary. Meet the young man who McKnight Boulevard is named for, learn about his national and international status, and hear behind the scenes stories from his family and friends. This presentation is created with exclusive letters, documents, photographs and memories from the McKnight Family Archive. And was he really called Willie? You will be a McKnight insider by the end of this presentation.Presented in Partnership with the Chinook Country Historical Society. www.chinookhistory.caLibrary Services AgreementNot a Library member yet?
