Nature’s Annual Miracle of Salmon Returning to North
Shore rivers and Streams.

enhancement activities on the North Shore.

A Final Thought ...

What insnediately comes to mind when asked to write
about West Vancouver is that in these hectic times and ongo-
ing growth the community spirit is strong, and very notice-
able. It is especially visible when we have our Community
Day parade with thousands of people lined up along Marine
Drive applauding all the participants, and particularly the
school kids. The spirit is just as noticeable at any other com-
munity event anywhere in West Vancouver. It is at these
times that we realise that in our busy lives the one thing we
will always appreciate ishow much we care for our children
and neighbours.
