On that evening we will be privileged to hear the Director of Community Relations for British Pacific Properties Ltd., Mr. Andrew Pottinger. Andrew, with long exerience in pub- lic and corporate relations will, as he consistently has done in the past, demonstrate how wise BPP were in appointing him as their spokesman. He is a most engaging speaker, one who will spark interest in everyone coming to hear him. The story of the British Pacific Properties (originally “Capilano Estates”) as part of West Vancouver history is a fascinating one. You may be sure that the telling of it will be something that will hold your interest. And weTl hear some up-to-the-minute news of BPP Ltd. As you may have heard, one of the company’s latest projects is the South Marr Creek proposal, encompassing an area between Whitby and Chelsea Estates. While this update will occupy a minor part of the presentation, it will how- ever serve to give you valuable background if you happen to tune in to Shaw Cablevision’s “Council This Week”. While we have your attention in this space, we’d like to mention that British Pacific Properties Limited underwrote wine and beer costs at our December 15,04 Christmas Party. A nice touch.
