Cathy English marks 30 years of preserving local history
Cathy English’s long-anticipated 30th anniversary party was held at the Museum & Archives on Friday and was greatly enjoyed by everyone who attended.
Judging by all of the stories about Revelstoke and its people that Cathy has filed away in her brain, we’ll bet those 30 years of preserving our community’s history and heritage were never dull.
We wouldn’t be the community we are today without you, Cathy.
Here is a selection of photos from the event:
The Revelstoke Museum & Archives put together a lovely tea party to celebrate Curator Cathy English’s 30 years with the institution. There was cake, fruit and, of course, tea.
