In other words, no complicated questions to answer, just follow the route and have fun.

VOLUME 20,NUMBER 4 THE ROUNDABOUT PAGE 2 The tour finished up at the Mission Springs Pub on the Lougheed Highway where we all enjoyed a great meal, great refreshments and great conversation. Chairman John McDonald gave a short talk thanking Walter for or- ganizing the run and all for attending. Turnout for the run was excellent with 16 cars taking part, most being VCB members, but with several LAMB (Langley Area Mostly British Car Club) and Rover Car Club members also taking part. Twenty nine people sat for lunch. It was great to see some newer members there including Robert and Pam Burns in their 1978 Triumph Spitfire and ace camera man Michael Speke in his 1974 Jensen Healey (if I’ve forgotten anyone, my apologies). Also noteworthy, we gained two new members on the tour. Welcome to Da- vid Vervaet and Teresa Evancic who attended in their very cool Land Rover Defender Light. All in all another very successful run put on by Walter Reynolds and I’m sure all attending would join me in thanking him for all of his hard work. Putting on an event like this takes a lot of effort and judging by the attendance of his last two runs (the other being this year’s Fort Lang- John McDonald addresses the crowd at the ley Run) this is something that branch members are want- Mission Springs Pub ing. Thank you Walter! VOLUME 20,NUMBER 4 THE ROUNDABOUT PAGE 3 Stewart Farm Picnic 2015 By Walter Reynolds On a sunny and hot August 4th evening 32 Vancou- ver Coast Branch members and guests met at the Historic Stewart Farm in Surrey for the Branch's 2015 Annual Picnic. Included in the 32 were sever- al Triumph Register members. We had invited the Triumph Register club as a way to reciprocate the invitation they extended to us to attend their 2014 BBQ. The Farm's parking lot was jammed with old British cars. I counted 17 at one point. A special car in attendance for a short while was the 1951 Daimler Barker Special of Dave Warlimont. While at first they didn't realize it Brian Lees and Richard Taylor were dressed almost identical and even sat together like they were twins! Once food was devoured, I made a few announcements regarding the November 1st London to Brighton Run and Lorna detailed upcoming events (Rocky Point Park Run, Port Moody, Sept. 1st; BCIT Shop Tour, Oct. 6th and the October 17th Annual Fraser Valley Run). Once that was over I tried to corral the four members present who had signed up for the "Man from UNCLE" movies pass- es. This was because we had to provide Warner Brothers with a photo of as many of the pass holders as possible, in front of a British car. Once I had the four together, I realized one had walked away. "Like herding cats!" one observer quipped. The photo, included here was taken by Sarah Wilson in front of her TR 250. Next on the agenda was the run to White Rock which was led by Ken & Pat Miles. All the British cars participated in the run and we must have made a pretty sight driving along in groups, waving to passers by. Statistically speaking, this was the third year in a row where we've had hot weather for the picnic; it's the second in a row where the tide has been in and no beach visible, and this was probably the most people we have had to the picnic, (2014's group pho- to showed 19). Interestingly neither of the 'twins' is in the photo and also missing is the photographer, Sarah Wilson! Once again, a successful event and thanks to Lorna for look- ing after the details. VOLUME 20,NUMBER 4 THE ROUNDABOUT PAGE 4 Fraser Valley Classic Car Show Text and Photos by Walter Reynolds In sharp contrast to last year when the very first Fraser Valley Classic Car Show was held in pouring rain, year two, on Sunday, July 19, 2015 was a swel- ter. It was a gezillion degrees all day long. Thanks to the event being held at the Atchelitz Threshermans Association’s property in Chilliwack there were lots of places to hide from the heat. From the Vancouver Coast Branch were Bence & Helen McIntyre (1964 MGB), Steve and Susan Blake (1937 Chevy 1/2 ton pick up truck), Clifford Jones (1969 Ford Cortina estate wagon), me (1963 Rover P5 3 Litre) and, newly back in the fold, Italo Cirillo (1961 Austin Cambridge estate wagon). Steve’s Chevy pick-up won first place in its “Domestic” class while the Reynolds Rover was Runner Up in its “Import” class. The Fraser Valley British Motor Club did an outstanding job of organizing this event. Tasty food was pre- pared by the Thresherman’s Kitchen volunteers. 140 cars showed out of 151 that were registered.

It has traversed terrains others simply could only dream of. It has forged lasting partnerships with such organisations as the Red Cross and Royal Geographical Society and has proved itself against all-comers on such gruelling challenges as the Dakar Rally. Now this iconic part of our history is set to continue with three Limited Edition vehicles being produced to celebrate its life. FIND A DEALERSHIP OVERVIEW SUMMARY Land Rover Defender’s boundless capability has taken it to all four corners of the earth. For instance, back in 1955, it was the first vehicle in the world to go overland from London to Singapore. It has worked in territories as diverse as Africa and Alaska. It has proved to be the most robust and unrelenting workhorse on farms, in jungles and deserts, delivered time after time in such industries as mining and engineering. Its heritage is without question. Its legacy, without equal. Top left and right: © British Motor Industry Heritage Trust. Bottom left: © Nick Dimbleby Photographer.

  • St-Andrews-History.Pdf
    St. Andrews on the Square is one of Kamloops’ oldest public buildings. It dates to the early history of this city – back to 1887. In four short months, this church went from an idea and initiative to a reality. This work looks chronologically at the history of St. Andrews. Along the way, glimpses of the history of Kamloops will also unfold. From the early Presbyterian missionary years, to Reverend John Chisholm, Phil Gaglardi, and to the restorations of 1996–1998, St. Andrews is a glimpse into our rich and diverse past. In 1872 a Presbyterian minister by the name of George M. Grant visited Kamloops. At this time, Kamloops was a small village nestled along the confluence of two rivers. Kamloops had one main street, coincidently named Main Street (now called Victoria Street), and a few other buildings that were located west of what is today First Avenue. George Grant was traveling at the time with Stanford Fleming as Fleming’s personal secretary. Both men worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway (C.P.R.). Grant conducted Presbyterian services on September 29, 1872 in the old dining room of the Hudson’s Bay Company fort – Fort Kamloops. In the years following 1872, Kamloops continued to be visited by various other Presbyterian Ministers. Their religious services were held in the old log courthouse that was located at the extreme west end of town. When a new wood framed courthouse was build in the late nineteenth century on First Avenue and Victoria Street, all religious services were moved there. Reverend George Murray was the first Presbyterian Minister to start regular meetings and services in Kamloops.

    Hayward Lake Reservoir Recreation Area Winter Vegetation and Wildlife Use Survey Hayward Lake Reservoir Recreation Area Winter Vegetation and Wildlife Use Survey Abstract A winter vegetation inventory and presence/not detected wildlife use survey was completed of BC Hydro’s Hayward Lake Reservoir Recreation Area from October 1999 to March 2000. This study was done to provide BC Hydro with baseline data on the vegetation and wildlife found during the winter period at Hayward Lake. Aerial photographs and maps were used to stratify BC Hydro’s property around the lake into four vegetation strata: • Old Growth: Areas displaying complex structure, mature trees and no evidence of logging • Second Growth: Areas displaying evidence of past logging activity • Riparian: Areas paralleling water courses; streams, creeks • Wetland: Areas with water as the dominant ecosystem feature. The site was visited by car, canoe and on foot to verify these strata. Four plots in each of the strata were randomly selected to complete sixteen vegetation and wildlife use plots. The site was visited bi-weekly, on Wednesday mornings to complete these surveys. From the plot centre, four levels of vegetation were identified and surveyed: • Moss Layer: Vegetation within 2.50 metres of plot centre; vegetation from 0m- 0.5m high • Herb Layer: Vegetation within 5.64 metres of plot centre; vegetation from 0.5m - 1.0m high • Shrub Layer: Vegetation within 5.64 metres of plot centre; vegetation from 1.0m - 10m high • Tree Layer: Vegetation within 10 metres of plot centre; vegetation over 10 metres Wildlife or wildlife use seen in each of the 10 metre radius plots was recorded.
