Rivers history book seeks memories of town recreation area
Dora Irvine previews a Rivers and District History Book section inviting submissions by Sept 30. The piece recalls the town swim and picnic site south of Rivers, built in the 1920s with CN Railway land, a sandy riverbank, and early volunteers who laid paths, built change areas, and organized maintenance. By 1945 vandalism closed the area.
