Glen Pine Pavilion is hosting a four-week History of B.C. Illustrated discussion with Brian McConnell starting later this month.
McConnell will start with aboriginal peoples, followed by European explorers, the Hudson's Bay Company, settlers and the gold rush. He'll cover the influence of the British Empire and men such as Douglas, Begbie and Moody as well as the effect of a national railway.
He'll trace the lot, warts and all: the horrible, the funny and the good.
His workshop runs four consecutive Mondays, Jan. 23 to Feb. 13, from 10 a.m. to noon. Cost is $20 for pavilion members or $25 for others.
You may register online at www.coquitlam.ca or phone Glen Pine at 604-927-6940 for more information.
