A few USW members and Canfor Vavenby staff, along with their families got together for the fifth year to build a float. The theme of our float was: A History of the Vavenby Sawmill. The mill was established in 1941 when Frank Capostinsky came from Alberta on behalf of Bob Swanson and bought a few of the original mills in the valley and set up the company known as CTP (Clearwater Timber Products). In 1986 CTP was bought by Slocan which then merged with and became known as Canfor in 2004. In the mid 1950's the mill unionized and the workers became part of the IWA (International Woodworkers of America) which merged with The United Steelworkers in 2004. A big thank you to all the helpers especially Keith for the design and organization of the work. The figures on top represent the “Loggers Sports Days” the community used to have to celebrate the Forest Industry in the valley. Big Barriere Block Party The second annual Big Barriere Block party was a huge success. Despite the cloudy and rainy weather, approximately 1000 people came out to enjoy the festivities . The action started with a bike rodeo for the kids from 12-2 and continued on with children's games, a vendors market, bouncy castles and live entertainment . The Big Barriere Block Party part 2 was only possible because of amazing sponsors like The United Steelworkers.
