    Leisure and Sociability on Bowen Island, 1902-57

    Vancouver’s Playground: Leisure and Sociability on Bowen Island, 1902-57 J.I. Little* n the 14 September 1967 issue of the Vancouver Sun, popular Icolumnist Penny Wise waxed nostalgic: It was Saturday evening at Bowen Island, midsummer. The good ship Lady Alexandra sidled up to the long pier to disgorge close to 1,000 young passengers, all on the Moonlight Cruise to spend the night dancing at the big island pavilion. Fourteen hundred more happy people, from one to 90 years, piled onto the emptied Lady Alex to go back to Vancouver after a 10-hour day of picnicking on the half dozen well-organized Union Steamship grounds. At the luxurious Bowen Inn guests enjoyed a leisurely, late dinner. Lawn bowlers rolled the last ball of the day along the eight lovely greens. Tired riders guided the saddle horses to the barn. Hikers straggled in from the trip to beautiful Lake Killarney. Visiting launches chugged quietly in to tie up for the night. A few late swimmers swam. Beach fires started to blaze; the sun’s last glow colored the west; the moon loomed in the east. Soon from the dance pavilion came the music of Barney Potts’ band ... “How Deep is the Ocean” ... “We Just Couldn’t Say Goodby” ... “Sundown” ... “Ain’t Misbehavin’” ... It was those lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer during Bowen Island’s heyday – the mid 1930s. It was the Union Steamships [sic] Company at the peak of its passenger service, providing transportation and family fun for one and all. Now it’s all gone.

    SS Belcarra Shipwrecked 100 Years Ago Researched and Written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, March 2010

    SS Belcarra Shipwrecked 100 Years Ago Researched and written by Ralph Drew, Belcarra, BC, March 2010. (Revised: April 7, 2010) One hundred years ago, a vessel that has historical significance to Indian Arm and Belcarra was shipwrecked. At 4:00 a.m. on September 17th, 1910, the coastal steamer SS Belcarra ran onto the rocks in Jervis Inlet. At the time the SS Belcarra was owned by the Sechelt Steamship Company and was operating on the coastal run along the Sunshine Coast carrying passengers and cargo from Vancouver to Jervis Inlet with landings at Cowan‘s Point, Tunstall Bay, Grantham‘s Landing, Gibson‘s Landing, Sechelt, Secret Cove and Pender Harbour. The SS Belcarra began its life in 1902 as the single-decked coastal freighter SS Unican — the vessel was 96 feet (29.3 meters) long, 20 feet (6.1 meters) wide, with a displacement of 89 tons. The steamer was built in Vancouver for The United Canneries of British Columbia Ltd.; hence the name Unican. The Terminal Steamship Company purchased the SS Unican in 1906, overhauled the original vessel, added a new passenger cabin, and re-launched the vessel on April 1st, 1907, as the SS Belcarra with Captain Anderson of the steamer Defiance in command. Initially, the SS Belcarra ran from Vancouver five days a week in the summer and three times a week in the winter, supplying the lumber camps and summer cottages of Indian Arm.

    Comparing University Entomology Outreach Events While Examining Public Views of Arthropods and Pesticides

    Comparing University Entomology Outreach Events While Examining Public Views of Arthropods and Pesticides Stephanie Lynn Blevins Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Life Sciences In Entomology Michael J. Weaver, Chair Paul Marek Tonya Price August 23, 2018 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Entomology, university outreach, public views, arthropods, pesticides Copyright © 2018 Stephanie Lynn Blevins Comparing University Entomology Outreach Events While Examining Public Views of Arthropods and Pesticides Stephanie Lynn Blevins Academic Abstract Hokie BugFest is an annual free event designed by the Entomology Department at Virginia Tech to translate the importance of entomology to the public. The event has grown from 2,000 attendees in 2011 to over 8,000 attendees in 2017. Entomology faculty, staff, graduate students and alumni partner with Virginia Cooperative Extension, Virginia 4-H, and other entities to provide an educational experience to the public. The goal of this outreach event is to showcase entomological research, increase public awareness, elevate the appreciation of entomology, develop better public perceptions of insects and other arthropods, and educate participants about pesticide safety and pest management practices. Although many institutions host entomology outreach events like Hokie BugFest (Frazier, 2002; Hamm & Rayor, 2007; Hvenegaard et al., 2013), little research has been conducted to compare the impact of these activities. Whether these events impact public attitudes toward insects and other arthropods is also lacking (Pitt & Shockley, 2014). Several studies have been conducted in other states to investigate public attitudes toward arthropods and pesticides (Baldwin et al., 2008; Byrne et al., 1984; Frankie & Levenson, 1978; Hahn & Ascerno, 1991; Potter & Bessin, 1998); however, research is missing in Virginia.
