‘The Castlegar and District
Development Board has a
short history, but a long
track record. Established as
the Castlegar Industrial
Commission two years ago,
the board's primary goal at
that time was to sell lots in
the city’s industrial park.

Despite tremendous’ hard
work in which the commis-
sion rewrote the industrial
park brochure, it had limited
success finding new tenants.

However, the commission
managed to secure federal
funding for an infrastructure
bulding. As many as 12 resi-
dents were employes to con-
struct the building, which
was then leased to a local
business that wanted to
expand. The business em-
ploys additional people in
larger location in the indus-
trial park.

But after two years, the
commission decided-a—new
direction was needed and es-
tablished the following goals:

e to form a ‘non-profit
society to obtain autonomy
and a new name (the Castle-
gar and District Develop-
ment Board):

to form a storefront office

sufficient staff;
to hold a public meeting

it was held in May, 1986
where several ‘sub-commit-
tees were formed);

‘# to publicize, promote and
“sell” Castlegar as a prime
industrial area;

@ to increase occupancy in
the industrial park;

eto elected bodies
informed of the board's ac-
tivities;

@ to co-operate and work
with special economic impact
groups and interested organ-
izations;

@ to investigate the feasi-
bility of establishing an
cubator” facility in the area;

e to establish an economic
strategy plan for the Castle-
gar area.

The Board, provides the
following services from its

storefront location on Col-*

umbia Ave.:

© consultation with busi-
ness and industrial clients;

@ community liaison and
communications;

« civie group assistance,
communications and public
relations;

ernment programs;

“We've created 11 jobs to
date,” points out Richard
Maddocks, who shares the
executive director position
with Harry Stan.

The jobs were created
through a silviculture pro-
gram and the unique “Cas”
promotion. Cas is a purple

promote Castlegar's new
theme “Hooked on Castle-

In addition, Maddocks and
Stan have been requested to
attend a development centre
in New Westminster to assist
in development of an econ-
omic development seminar.

Both Maddocks and Stan
are optimistic about eecon-
omic development in the
area,

“Things appear to be really
picking up,” says Maddocks.

“The attitude of the busi:
ness community is positive,
adds Stan.

Both say that Castlegar is
seen as a regional leader and
is not just the distribution
centre of the West Kootenay,
but “the shopping céntre.”

SPORTS HUT
UNDER NEW
MANAGEMENT

Over the past few months Mountain Ski and Sports Hut
have undergone inventory and staff changes. The sporting
goods store which has been in the Castleaird Plaza for
several years is now under the new management of Cindy
Rowe.

Cindy is originally from Burnaby and has lived in
various locations in the province. The Rowe family has been
in Castlegar for 2" years during which time Cindy has
taught aerobies privately as well as through the Recreation
Commission. She has been teaching aerobics since 1980.

Changes to the store include selling off camping, fishing,
curling, hockey and ski equipment and changing the style of
the store from one which carries a bit of everything to one
which specializes in sports clothing and leisurewear for men
and women, and footwear for men, women and children.
Mountain Sports Hut also carries aerobics wear, including
locally made leisure wear by Kathy Verigin, as well as ball
equipment.
