Editor:
The Tetrahedron Out-door Club is throwing a big party and you are all invited.
Twenty-five years ago they, then called the Tetrahedron Ski Club, marshalled the citizens, businesses and governments of the Sunshine Coast to build four log cabins and about 25 km of trails in what is now Tetrahedron Provincial Park. Back in 1987, at least 240 local volunteers joined with 45 businesses, schools, associations, the Sunshine Coast Regional District, District of Sechelt, Town of Gibsons and governments of Canada and B.C. in a year-long project to create our back-country skiing and hiking system.
Over the years, Coast volunteers and businesses, the Ministry of Forests and BC Parks have helped the Tetrahedron Club maintain and improve this resource, which is at least as good today as when it was first built.
So, come and help celebrate the cabins, the mountains, successful volunteerism and 25 years of community cooperation.
On Sept. 15, a rocking dance will follow a family event and slideshow honouring the community at the Roberts Creek Hall. Then the club will host hikes and pancake breakfasts over following weekends at three of the four cabins. Come out for some fun and see what our community can do when we put our minds to it.
Stay tuned as details unfold over the summer.
