The Brackendale Farmers’

the establishment of a 32-acre
park in that neighbourhood, and
will apply for funds for several
memorial projects.
Projects identified at the first
annual general meeting of the BFI
on Jan. 21 include memorial
cairns for the J.A. Quick Memorial
Forest and pioneer resident
Hquy Judd on Judd Road.
Vice-president Tbor Froslev
said the Farmers’ Institute would
also like to see a sign placed at
old racke en h s fireplace to
explain its significance.
A fall fair is another possible
project of the group, Froslev said.
This could include selling pro-
duce from gardens, some live-
stock, firewood, as well as prod-
ucts of crafts made in the home.
Another goal of the BFI is the
reconstruction of the Brackendale
railway station, he said.
The 1993 executive includes
Nick Candy, president; Thor
Froslev as vice-president; Don
Ross as secretary-treasurer; and
Bill Berg and Narg Candy as
