Adventurers Ahoy!

Calling all outdoor explorers & armchair adventurers! Please join the Strathcona Wilderness Institute for a presentation of the ‘Strathcona Centennial Expedition’ on Sat. Feb. 19 at 7 pm at the Stan Hagen Theatre, North Island College, Ryan Rd, Courtenay. In the summer of 2010 this Expedition retraced the historic journey of a century earlier that resulted in the creation of Strathcona Park as the first BC Provincial Park. Join Philip Stone as he tells the story with slides and a documentary video.
Admission is $10 with proceeds going to support the work of the Strathcona Wilderness Institute.

Events and celebrations are planned throughout British Columbia in 2011 to mark a century of provincial Parks. The Comox Valley is an important gateway to Strathcona Park, the oldest Provincial Park in BC.
