One of our members, John
Ireland, penned the introduction to a beautiful book by local photographer,
John Gordon, entitled Langley: Familiar Places, Familiar Scenes.
We encourage you to check out John Gordon's work at his website
below.
The book ISBN 0-9736326-0-7
is available at bookstores such as Chapters, Black Bond, Coles and
Wendells. Alternatively, call 604 533-7171 or e-mail
to order directly. Cost is $20 plus 6% GST.
Interested in your own
geneology? It takes more than just names and dates of birth, marriage
and death to make a family history. You must make the people come
alive with a little research. Pick up some library books and see what
was happening in the province/country/internationally during the ancestor's
lifetime. That will help YOU also to understand what influenced their
daily living and gave them knowledge of the world around them. Here
are some links for researching your own family history. Good luck!

Whisper
from the Heart Poetry Club was founded (By Stan Almendro; Giselle
Visser & a member who has since resigned from any activity
in the club) out of a sincere desire to be different (with an
emphasis on being people orientated) and is not just another
Poetry Club but rather covers a full spectrum of the arts.
We are committed
to offer our members the opportunity to expand their horizon
in their own particular gift and talent. To do this we will
on a regular basis have new opportunities for their participation.
