[BCMA] Upcoming Major Anniversaries in BC

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Good afternoon,
I would like to let you know, that the Valemount Museum is going to 
celebrate its 100 year anniversary of the museum building, which was 
built 1914 as the Swift Creek Railway Station, in 1927 re-named to 
Valemount Station and used as such until 1981. The Valemount Historic 
Society purchased the building in 1987, moved and renovated it with lots 
of volunteers and volunteer hours. The building was opened as the 
Valemount & Area Museum in the early 1990s.

Sincerely,
Jeannette Lorenz
