Community Profile - Gwynne Vaughan Park Located on the corner of Williams Road and Hope River Road, the Gwynne Vaughan Park consists of 6 acres of lawns, gardens and paths, all surrounding a heritage house built in 1896.

This beautiful and unique park has become an increasingly popular site for wedding ceremonies, club picnics and family gatherings. Gwynne Vaughan Park offers a number of seasonally changing and beautifully planned settings for either large or small groups, whether it’s the Rotary Pavilion, a forest grove, or flower borders surrounding large wellmaintained lawns. It is also popular with local residents who enjoy a daily walk through the Park’s gardens and winding paths. Currently the Park also offers 20 community garden plots for Chilliwack residents who wish to produce their own fresh vegetables and flowers, meet new friends, share gardening ideas and expertise and enjoy the Park together.

Thousands of plant lovers and bargain hunters visit the Gwynne Vaughan Park every year for the annual Plant Sale and Garden Party. Held the first Saturday in June, it includes more than 30 nurseries from around the Fraser Valley, featuring rare water plants, Japanese maples, specialty herbs and vegetables, and unusual perennials and shrubs which are not always available in local nurseries. Some garden

crafts and art are also available. A traditional strawberry tea held on the front lawn under the century-old maple tree is a popular treat. Local musicians, a variety of food, raffles, and children’s activities such as face-painting all make this a most enjoyable day.

The money raised from this event goes to maintain and enhance the Gwynne Vaughan Park.

There is also a popular holly and wreath sale every December, using material from the Gwynne Vaughan’s own trees and shrubs.

Willed to the City of Chilliwack in 1991, the Park is administered by the Gwynne Vaughan Park Society. The Gwynne Vaughan Park Board and members of the Society, with the support and co-operation of the City of Chilliwack Parks, Recreation and Culture Department, develop and maintain the Park’s heritage house and its beautiful gardens and trees.

The Gwynne Vaughan Park has received many generous donations over the years from both individuals and community groups, including the Chilliwack Rotary Club, the Rotary Club of Chilliwack-Fraser and the Chilliwack Foundation.

For more information visit the Park’s website: www.gwynnevaughanpark.ca. or phone Anne at 604-8587089 or Beth at 604-792-4828.

“I am enrolled in Terrina’s indoor bootcamp and I love it! She took the time to go over modifications with me and she keeps an eye out for all the participants in the class. I love that she understands my weaknesses, yet does not allow me to use them as excuses. The class has people of all fitness levels and ages, each working to the best of their ability. Terrina is an awesome mix of compassion, knowledge and Jillian Michaels. I highly recommend her and her class!”

“There is no sleeping in this camp! It is fun, challenging and keeps me guessing in a good way! Terrina has an enthusiastic, positive attitude. She clearly knows what she is doing and accommodates all fitness levels and injuries to insure everyone gets the best workout possible. This is definitely not a workout you could motivate yourself to do on your own. Terrina is there every step to push you to your best!”

“I just wanted to tell you how much I LOVE your boot camp program! It’s crazy great and so are you! You’re positive & passionate about helping. Your “always sunshine at 5:30 am attitude”, keeps me focused on the goal. Thank you so much for everything that you have done for me.

I’ll be back…your amazing! Luv ya!”
