The Green Log House is” - Hitting the Highway —

-The green log building on Keith Avenue, affec-

tionately known to the Terrace & District Chamber ° of Commerce as the Chamber office and the Visitor - Information Centre, is not really hitting the highway

but the controversial and debatable green colour is. After much controversy and many ‘years of hav- ing to answer..."°Why did you paint it green?”...

the Chamber, through a special project ‘fund from.

Tourism BC, is changing the colour of the Visitor

' Information Centre back to the, natural colour of a

log building.

This past year Visitor Information Centres, that are managed by local organizations and not run-

by Tourism BC, could submit a one time local im-

provement project, for up to $10, 000, to enhance.

their centre. Around the same time Tourism BC was announc-

ing changes in their corporate logos and colours. ° -The current colours of green, white and black’ will

be changed to blue, white and yellow. And informa- tional highway signs will also be changing colour

As Tourism BC. was dropping the ‘dreaded by :

Terrace folks’ green, it gave the Chamber a. great

. Opportunity to submit our. “special projects” grant.

If approved, we would get rid of the green colour on. the logs and revert the building back’ to its natural colour.

' . As part of our special project fanding we were

also able to order two more flag poles for the Visitor ° Information Centre. Currently we have two poles

upon which we fly the Canadian flag and the Visi- .

tor Information Centre flag. Within the next eight .

weeks you will also see the Province.of BC-flag as

well as a City of Terrace flag flying proudly to greet

Within the same time frame you will also see a natural log building greeting. our local, provincial; national and international travelers as they stop by.
