    Gazetteer of Yukon Updated: May 1, 2021 Yukon Geographical Names Program Tourism and Culture Yukon Geographical Place Names Program The Yukon Geographical Place Names Program manages naming and renaming of Yukon places and geographical features. This includes lakes, rivers, creeks and mountains. Anyone can submit place names that reflect our diverse cultures, history and landscape. Yukon Geographical Place Names Board The Yukon Geographical Place Names Board (YGPNB) approves the applications and recommends decisions to the Minister of Tourism and Culture. The YGPNB meets at least twice a year to decide upon proposed names. The Board has six members appointed by the Minister of Tourism and Culture, three of whom are nominated by the Council of Yukon First Nations. Yukon Geographical Place Names Database The Heritage Resources Unit maintains and updates the Yukon Geographical Place Names Database of over 6,000 records. The Unit administers the program for naming and changing the names of Yukon place names and geographical features such as lakes, rivers, creek and mountains, approved by the Minister of Tourism and Culture, based on recommendations of the YGPNB. Guiding Principles The YGPNB bases its decisions on whether to recommend or rescind a particular place name to the Minister of Tourism and Culture on a number of principles and procedures first established by the Geographic Names Board of Canada. First priority shall be given to names with When proposing names for previously long-standing local usage by the general unnamed features—those for which no public, particularly indigenous names in local names exist—preference shall be the local First Nation language.

    Tb. Varsity øtddoor Club 3ournal VOLUME XXXI 1988 ISSN 0524-5613 ‘7/se ?ô7ireuity of Bteah Ccs!um6.a Vscoiwi, TIlE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Andy Pacheco The success of a club can be gauged by how many people ase inspired enough to become involved with the club activities. For an outdoor club, the major activities are, of course, trips to the mountains. Both Longhike and especially the glacier school in October attracted record numbers, and though these numbers predictably decreased as the midterms and exams came raining down, many an impromptu day trip was still thrown together at the eleventh hour in the club room Fridays. The VOC Christmas trips were all well attended, and in addition, two very successful avalanche awareness courses and a wilderness first aid course were held in December and January. Close to home, the VOC fielded many intramural teams, including two Arts 20 relay teams and frtt Storm the Wall teams. The best thing is how many people still show up at meetings and at the clubroom in Maich, even if they are too busy to go on trips. Many a summer adventure will be planned even as this article goes to the printers! Our love for the outdoors and outdoor activities does lead the VOC to get involved in various projects related to our interests. Among the prujects taken on this year: two bake sales were organized to raise funds to create the park at the Little Smoke Bluffs in Squamish. In addition, planning continues for the construction of “the Enrico Kindl memorial climbing wall” on campus, a facility which would allow for rock climbing instruction and training year round.

This year was a good one for the V.O.C. We have seen our membership grow to a recent high of over 250. For many, the club has opened up a whole new world of adventure and challenge. For others, the club has continued to be a central part of their lives adding new memories and aspirations. The success of our club has always been in the strength of our active members. This year, again, active members gave their time unselfishly to such things as leading trips, cabin committee meetings and social functions, not to mention many others. It is these people I would like to thank most for making my job, as President, that much more enjoyable. For those of you who have participated in club activities for the first time, I urge you to take an active part in helping to run the club. I am sure you will find that the rewards far exceed the time and effort involved. As a club whose major interests lie in the outdoors, I feel we as a membership have helped people become more aware of what is beyond the campus of U.B.C. British Columbia offers a wealth of wilderness which is accessible to everyone. It is important that as a club we continue to pass on our knowledge about outdoor activities and wilderness areas.
