Party to celebrate pioneers
Help wanted: Organizers seek ideas and volunteers. All pioneer and present residents of Blind Bay are urged to mark July 18 and 19 on their calendars as the birthday celebrations of the early settlers of that area. Records show 2014 is the 100th anniversary of the opening of the first school and post office in that community. Activities confirmed for the event include a tour of historic sites around the bay, an old-fashioned tea, pub-
lication of a book of Blind Bay pioneers’ memories, displays of memorabilia, art, quilts and photos, golf tournaments and a video based on the history of the Reedman family. Other events planned for the two-day celebration but not yet finalized, are a community picnic, a homecoming dance and horse and wagon rides. The committee is particularly anxious to contact pioneer residents of
Blind Bay. If you are a pioneer of that area, or know someone who is, you are invited to submit their name by email to info@blindbay100. com. The celebration is being planned by a joint committee of the communities surrounding the bay – Cedar Heights, Blind Bay and Shuswap Lake Estates. Each community is organizing at least one event or activity.
Other communities and organizations surrounding Blind Bay are also invited to participate and can do so by contacting the committee by email. Suggestions for other activities are still being sought by the committee, and volunteers are needed to assist with some of the activities. Anyone who is interested in volunteering for this special celebration may send an email to info@blindbay100.
