The third annual Steamship Days was once again a great success with a wide variety of exciting activities throughout the weekend including: an a wooden boat show put on by the Classic Wooden Boat Society, and the SS Wanderer had more visitors this year than all the past years; classic car show brought by the Classic Car Association and the MG’s brought in by the MG Club. Both local and imported bands brought music to the Cove throughout the weekend, and kids had a fabulous time building replica boats, not to mention the pie-eating contest and dancing at the Bowen Island Marina (aka the pier). Saturday night’s gala dance was also a huge success with more than 200 people attending.
I would personally like to thank Daniella Sorrentino, Rob Wall, Norma Dallas, the Bowen Island Golf Course and Bruce Russell, the USSC Marina, Bowen Heritage and the Bowen Island Historical Society especially Rebecca Henderson and Pernille Nielsen – also Dora Trethewey, who at the age of 94 is our oldest volunteer.
And of course I’d like to thank everyone who came out and had a great time. See you all next year,

Maria Steernberg
