There is no fee for the work- shop and participating com- munities are provided with a multi-media kit for developing volunteers, local government, better business bureaus, local merchants, various communi- ty organizations. The kits also show how to organize and ac- cess heritage preservation and tourism programs for the ben- efits of all. Last month, a positive or- ganizational meeting “was held at the Castlegar Rail Sta- tion were it was announced that the application made to the ministry. was accepted. Therefore, the workshop is set for May 7 and 8 at the Castlegar Rail Station Muse- um, There is no fee but the number of delegates is limited to 20 and those who attended the organizational meeting are being contacted and given first priority. In the meantime, a new brochure for the rail station has been commenced and should soon be in print while the station office is open ona day-to-day basis pending gov- ernment permission to hire staff. The Chapel House on Zuckerberg Island Heritage Park was ordered open on a volunteer basis and welcomed 370 visitors on the Easter weekend — a record atten- dance, thanks in part to the considerable support of the lo- cal press and radio. There was considerable de- bate over entrance fees to the Station and Chapel House and it was decided to make the admission free with volun- tary donations until the annu- al general meeting. Because of the Community Pride workshop set for May 7 and 8, the date of the annual general meeting for the elec- tion of officers has been ad- vanced to Thursday, May 14. Island administrator Char- lie Horrey reported that the Chapel House floor has been cleaned and sealed with Dan- ish oil, while the city mainte- nance crew has built a new picnic table in the vicinity of the house and repaired and pointed the chimney and heater. He, together with volunteer Doris Sweeney, gardeners Ver- na Keraiff and Bob Switzer, is working on grooming and maintaining the gardens and woods. : There have already been several tours of the Station and Chapel House, the most recent being the Castlegar Beavers under the direction of volunteer guide Loyd Groutage. Alice Horrey, wedding co- ordinator, reported that four couples have already booked summer weddings at the Chapel House. Again this year, the New Life Assembly held, with per- mission, a 6 a.m. sunrise East- er service on the Island and the traditional call of the Sho- far or Jewish ramshorn awoke the echoes as the sun rose above the mountains. At the last city council meeting, Councillor Doreen Smecher was appointed city representative to the British Columbia Heritage Society Conference in Vernon on May 21 to 24. Last year the city’s repre- sentative was Alderman Bob Pakula. He was accompanied by the Castlegar Heritage So- ciety representative and archivist Bunny Charters. Since society policy has es- tablished that a new delegate is always matched with a her- itage conference veteran, Charters will again represent the society and introduce Smecher to the many provin- cial and heritage delegates who will be attending. All enquires concerning tours — including school tours — weddings or permission for activities should be directed through the Rail Station office by calling 365-6440.
