Heritage Day dinner set

of our past and their efforts
to not only preserve it, but to
restore it to its former use as
a social gathering place on
the North Shore.

The Lodge was formerly
the hiome of Colonel Si.
George Hammersley, who
was the first solicitor for the
City of Vancouver. It was
the first large house on the
North Shere. The property
at that time contained 19,000
acres and extended up to 8th
Street.

The family donated the
eastern part of Victoria Park
to the city in 1910. Colonel
Hammersley also started the
ferry system between North

Vancouver and Vancouver
and introduced hop growing
in the Fraser Valley, at
Agassiz, which was called
Hammersley at that time.

He was a founder of the
first athletic club in Van-—
couver, which became the
Vancouver Rowing Ctub,
and the first president of the
Rugby Union.

Heritage Canada, a non-
governmental body, has
succeeded in getting
national recognition for this
day from Parliament to
make everyone aware of
their natural and built-in
heritage. The next step in
the campaign is to lobby for
a national holiday during the

months old, spayed, very sweet and
