BC Parks: Celebrating 100 years of Recreation and Protection
Press play to start. Video will take a moment to load; please be patient. EKOS Communications and Rick Searle, in collaboration with the Elder's Council for Parks of British Columbia, have produced this short video (approx. 15 mins) which provides a historical overview of the development of British Columbia’s spectacular protected area system from its beginning in the creation of Strathcona Provincial Park in 1911 to the challenges of today. The video features interviews with former park employees and a long-time environmental advocates combined with historical photographs. Voice-over narration ties the clips together to tell a complete story.
Project funded by the British Columbia Ministry of Environment, Environmental Stewardship Division, and the BC 150th initiative. Video produced by EKOS Communications. |
