White Rock, B.C., Thursday, March 7th, 1957

Made Here

Sugaring off time in On-
tarlo woods will soon be ar-
tiving, but there’s one man in
White Rock who is out to
prove that B.C. maples, too,
ean producee the syrup which
goes so well with the morn-
ing pancake or waffle.

Last week a resident of
Bergstrom Road brought to
the Semiahmoo Sun office 4
bottle of the much-prized
brown liquid.

He obtained the fine-tasting
syrup by tapping maple trees
on his property, collecting the
sap and boiling it to the right

syrupy consistency-

He was nominated for office

agreed unanimously on the
proposal by the Board of
Trade that a general meeting
be called shortly to enlighten
the public on the Centennial
project. |

The group felt although
many organizations were not
represented at the meeting:
not one of these bodies would
oppose a Community Centre.

A. P. Atkinson, representing
the Board of Trade and the
Historical Association, recom-
mended White Rock “go after
the project in one big step.”
