On this page, we will revisit the past. We encourage Almuni to send in their own stories -- along with photos, if you have them. We are particularly interested in the events of the first 50 years of Shawnigan history. In addition, we will offer a monthly update from our archives.

Young Farmers' Club

– an excerpt from the 1954 SLS Magazine.

A very successful year. The Club members invested share capital which enabled us to add rabbits to the livestock list. Pigs and chickens continue to thrive. Rabbit entries in the B.C. Products Fair in May brought 2 First Prizes, 1 Second, and 1 Third. More visits were made, mostly to Rabbitries. At the end of the year each member received a share of profits on his investment. This augers well for a good year in 1954-55.
