What’s New? Memorial Park Upgrade

Work will begin this fall on this park space along the White Rock waterfront. The park will connect the City’s two significant heritage pieces – the White Rock Pier and the White Rock Museum and Archives, previously the City’s train station. The City is planning to upgrade and enhance the green space, create a wider pedestrian pathway and add a community gathering plaza. The plaza will support City events that celebrate our strong community spirit and provide outdoor recreation space. The upgrades to Memorial Park will leave a permanent legacy for the citizens of White Rock and will include elements to educate residents and visitors of the City’s local heritage.

HISTORICAL FUN FACT

FRASER VALLEY REGIONAL LIBRARY 15342 Buena Vista Avenue, White Rock. (604) 541-2201

Located adjacent to City Hall, the library acts as a meeting place for many literary and cultural groups. The library hosts book clubs, writing clubs and a history club that are

all open to the public. Another feature of the library is their art wall, which has monthly art exhibitions showcasing local artists.

WHITE ROCK MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES

14970 Marine Drive, White Rock. (604) 541-2221 The White Rock Museum and Archives is dedicated to preserving and promoting local history and culture and is located in the historic White Rock Train Station. The Museum offers changing exhibits and programs that interpret regional and local history and challenges visitors to think about the future as well as the past.

White Rock and Canada’s Birthdays Linked Over the Years It was historically appropriate that the recent 60th anniversary celebration for the City of White Rock was held in Centennial Arena. It was truly history repeating itself. On April 15, 1967 as Mayor Harry Douglass cut the cake to celebrate White Rock’s 10th birthday, he was also presiding over the official opening of the new Centennial Arena constructed to celebrate Canada’s 100th birthday. The new arena was the result of years of work and deliberation by the White Rock Centennial Committee, made up of about 20 White Rock citizens and politicians. This White Rock Sun photo shows the mayor about to cut the cake, flanked on the far left by Jessie Lee, and on the right by Max Zack, both members of the first elected city council. To the mayor’s right is Charles MacElhinney, a true champion of White Rock incorporation. In the words of journalist Margaret Lang Hastings “If it had not been for Mac’s persistent, untiring drive this city could well be still a fringe area of Surrey’s vast municipality instead of being the attractive and unique entity that it is today.”

What is Jumpstart? Jumpstart Charities gives kids a sporting chance. Kids aged 4 to 18 years from families in financial need can receive funding to help with registration fees. Participating in sport helps kids develop physical and social skills. It helps build self-esteem. By helping kids get into the game, we’re equipping them with determination. And we’re giving them confidence.

Does my child qualify? Families must meet financial need criteria in order to qualify for Jumpstart funding. Jumpstart follows Revenue Canada’s Low Income Cut-offs (LICOs) which are based on a family’s size, the size of their community and the total family unit income (before tax).

Where do I apply? Jumpstart funding application forms are available online at www.whiterockcity.ca and at each of our recreation centres: White Rock Community Centre (15154 Russell Ave.) Centennial Park Leisure Centre (14600 North Bluff Rd.) Kent Street Activity Centre (1475 Kent St.)
