BC Parks 100

Heritage BC has been appointed to a provincial Steering Committee to oversee plans to celebrate the 100th anniversary of BC Parks.

In 2011, BC Parks will reach a significant milestone in our history as we celebrate our 100 year anniversary.  BC Parks is planning a memorable celebration; we hope that community groups and other interested citizens will join us in honouring our past!  BC Parks will host a variety of events and activities, accompanied by publications, media stories, exhibits, competitions, conferences, forums, etc, that focus on celebrating, informing and re-dedicating society to the historic role and the current and future value of parks in British Columbia. Planning for the centennial commemoration is already underway.

The festivities associated with the 100 year anniversary will highlight the successes of the park system over the last 100 years and educate park visitors about the 
significant natural and cultural values associated with parks.  BC Parks plays a vital role in protecting and conserving cultural heritage features in the province - the Provincial Heritage Program grew out of the commitment that BC Parks plays in protecting and conserving cultural heritage features in the province!

Come and help us create a legacy for the next 100 years and promote the extensive heritage values in BC Parks. For more information:
