Cannery Seeks Search and Rescue Stories

The Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site is currently looking for
search and rescue stories involving fishermen for an exhibit opening in
2004. Hundreds of men and women have risked their lives at sea to save the
lives of others. The SOS exhibit will be a tribute to the coast guard,
fishermen and other individuals who have attempted to rescue fishermen
caught in life threatening situations. Whether their operations were
successful or not, these people have demonstrated heroic actions. There is a
need to tell their stories. Please contact Viviane Gosselin if you wish to
share your search and rescue story. Tel: 604.664.9282 or email:
viviane.gosselin@pc.gc.ca

CANNERY NIGHT

Come and bring the whole family - tap your toes, dance your
jig on Aug. 3, 2003 at the Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site.
The Gulf of Georgia Cannery Society will host TILLERS FOLLY, for an evening
of Dancing and Dining, BBQ salmon dinner community made deserts. Licensed.
Call 604-664-9135 for tickets, reserve your table now.
TILLERS FOLLY - "The East Coast of Canada has had a number of bands that
have celebrated that area's history and musical links to it's
Scottish/Irish/English roots, but the West Coast never really has had
anything similar until now. The British Columbia band The Tiller's Folly is
stepping in to fill that void with a historically based collection of songs
that are played with a strong Celtic flavour. Led by vocalist/guitarist
Bruce Coughlan, the band plays an original style of melodic Folk/Rock with
twin fiddles, whistles, and mandolin, backing vocals and a guest drummer on
most tracks. Coughlan draws upon the rich heritage of the Canadian west for
most of his subject material, interspersed with original instrumental pieces
that draw upon the Canadian Celtic tradition as well. It's music that works
on two levels: as a history lesson and as good music in it's own right."
