Later, a secondary science teacher raised the matter of creeks again when she asked if the Society knew which of the creeks had, or had had, a value for fishing. The question was raised at the next general meeting and drew a number of enthusiastic responses from the audience. Everybody here before 1930 seemed to have fished or knew of someone else who did. With the business of the meeting ahead, the chairman did not take advantage of the occasion. Now the Society would like to pursue the matter. There is, of course, a great deal of information to be gleaned from the Municipal Hall, but the Society would prefer to find out what you as individuals know and remember. But first a bit of background. The map that accompanies this article shows nineteen creeks. But the map was prepared by Fisheries and Marine Service, and probably shows only creeks with a fish potential. A list prepared by the Municipality adds five more names. But that brings us to the delightful problem of the vagaries of place names, especially over any interval of time. Eagle Creek on one source is Eagle Harbour Creek on another. Vincent Creek is almost surely Vinson Creek. But Gisby, Turner, McGQwan and Sandy Cove are probably separate creeks without a fishing potential. We would like you to help the Society expand its knowledge of the creeks of West Vancouver. If you lived in West Vancouver before 1930, you may be able to tell us something about the creek or creeks in your area. Some suggestions to start you thinking: Names : Are the names as you remember them? Is your favourite creek omitted, and if so, what was it called and where did it run? Water Supply ; Before water was tapped into houses some if not all the creeks were used for house water. What do you know of this? Mills, flumes and mill ponds You may be able to tell us something about these, especially if you on occasion rode shingle blocks down the flumes. If so, tell us about It. Fishing ; Did you fish the creeks? What did you catch? Which creeks? Recreation : Did you play in the creeks? How? With or without permission? The Society would be most interested in any recollections that you may have. If you don't feel up to writing, a member of the Executive would be pleased to record your memories on tape. HIGH SCHOOL ANNUALS The Society has been given copies of all the annuals of West Vancouver Secondary School from 1956-57 to the present. For the years before that time, it has annuals only for the years 1938-39; 1947-48 1950-51 and 1952-53. If anybody has annuals for the rest of the years and would donate them, the Society would be most grateful. The annuals give an insight to school life and the activities of the students. Hillside Secondary has donated a set of its annuals and a similar contribution is expected from Sentinel.
