Castle Joe is celebrating its fifth anniversary as a purveyor of books and art supplies in Revelstoke.
Castle Joe proprietor and artist Gwen Lips has worked long hours, frequently helped by her lively and ever-helpful daughters, Bridget and Maggie. The girls are three and one, respectively, so you can imagine just how lively and helpful they are.
Gwen says she has planned a Fifth Anniversary Party with cake, coffee and some screaming deals (you could save 50%) on books and art supplies for Thursday, May 15, from noon until 5 pm.
Over the five years since Gwen opened the shop she had worked to make it an integral part of the community, as you can see from these photos (shown here with their original captions) that were published in The Current:
