purely vital part of the financial and heritage future of
Castlegar, and to the rapidly growing tourist picture in
this area.

Against this past fumble we have a present success
and a future potential, both linked.

This present is the story of Zuckerberg Island
Heritage Park. A run-down and forgotten wilderness up
to 1981 it was bought by the city as a potential park, but
there was little will and less money available to develop
it. For the next two years the city’s ‘Private Property, No
“Trespassing’ signs left the island and its buildings open to
fire and increased vandal depredations. Only alert
citizens and prompt action by thé city firemen saved it
from total destruction. >

In the spring of 1983 the Castlegar Rotary Club, in
cooperation with the city and certain began

the fact that I am on the island every day, I was surprised
at what I found. The average daily number of visitors for
the period was 43 (Castlegar at this time it was about 20
and it has increased to 66 per day in the past week), The
origins of these visitors for the period is a revelation (see

Nonetheless, a magnet must have two poles to hold
these filings — or visitors. In our case that other pole is
the CP Rail station — the nucleus of the City of Castlegar
and one of our few remaining heritage sites here. It is
something we hold in trust for our children and
grandchildren.

The idea of a combination of heritage and tourism
has been fact of economical life for sometime in Britain
and elsewhere. It is arriving as a blinding light in Canada,
but it is time we get moving, drawing the two together
for the betterment of both.

ished and the island opened as a city park.

By the spring of 1984 the access suspension bridge
had been built (with at leastonereckless life saved). Also,
a grant had been obtained from the B.C. Heritage Branch
and work begun (mainly by volunteers) on the restoration
of the buildings: Certain persons continued to mutter
darkly of the overall value of the bridge and the financial
viability of the island project, while studiously ignoring
the extensive support both were getting from the greater

community.

Ce PI of City council and CP Rail
officials have been negotiating in an atmosphere of
growing respect and understanding, the transfer of the
railway station against the time for its removal and the
construction of a new building. We have just been given
notice. We now have about two months to remove and
save the building. The time of talking is ended. The time
for cooperation action is now. We must get possession or
lose everything that has been worked for. The concept of
the Ministry of Tourism, Recreation and Culture, I feel is
a rational and positive approach, and these two poles

ther with the Kootenay Doukhobor museum, the
NEC and the College all form a part of a greater whole for

By 1985, after two years of agi i i
signs were finally set up at the south entrance and the
centre of the city, though several local maps have yet to
discover the place, and there are no signs for these
coming in from the ferry.

By June 1987 the Chapel House was officially opened
and has been kept open at considerable effort by
volunteers (friends of the island).

In short, only five years ago Zuckerberg Island was
virtually unknown to most citizens and almost entirely
unknown beyond the city boundaries. In the past year it
has been visited bythe premier, the Minister of Tourism,
the Commander in Chief of the Canadian Forces,
numerous school groups, foreign groups and many
others. It is the place to visit in Castlegar.

On request, I did a survey of visitors to the Chapel
House in the past two weeks, July 22 to Aug. 5. Despite

the better of this area.

For those who still see the world only through the
bars of a dollar sign it has been demonstrated repeatedly
and repeated most strongly at the recent Project Pride
royal commission hearings on heritage that for every
dollar spent on the Heritage community two dollars come
back. But as in any business venture, the dollar must be
put out first. Furthermore, once the building becomes
ours and is removed from private to city property, we can
apply for grants of up to $50,000 from the B.C. Heritage
Trust which operates under the ministry.

The Minto was lost through a lack of organization
and initiative. Zuckerberg Island Heritage Park, the
Chapel House and the suspension have become realities
and valuable acquisitions to the city’s future through
organization, several major acts of faith and a lot of hard
work.

When the CP Rail station was open for a few brief
days last spring during Heritage week, it had almost 600
visitors — a most positive indication of interest in an
essential part of our past and a strong vote of confidence
in our future.

For those who would block this bold step into

from the pi of y day I would offer

two matters for consideration: One, in the remote

possibility that they were successful the albatross that

they will have hung about their neck would make that of

the Ancient Mariner look like a toy hydrogen balloon.

Two,’1 and I suspect,many of the’ other volunteer

workers, would be giving immediate and serious

to activiti to a city without

purpose or vision. The loss to the community would be
irreplacable, but inevitable.

To quote Pete Ogiow's Russian saying: “The person
who does not know his past has no future.”
