The bar on the right shows the individual donations made to date. Any donation would be helpful in getting our artillery story out to the public.
Volunteer Docent Guides
​It's time to bring our collection of historic photographs out from the archival vaults. We've embarked on a project of 4 separate volumes of full size laminated photographs. These include Yorke Island, Point Grey Fort, Stanley Park and Bessborough Armoury. The intent is to provide a useful tool for a docent to lead a tour through each of these locations with a handy reference photo to pass around the group. "Here's where a 6-Inch Breech Loading Mark VII gun was installed", works a lot better when you have a photo to pass around.
Collectable Cards Set#2 - Coast Artillery
We're working on the wording for our next set of collectable cards. Point Grey Fort, Stanley Park Fort, Yorke Island, Narrows North. Expected cost $250.00 for 4 sets of 200 each.  Thanks to Doug Gayton, we've reached our goal and the "Coast Cards" have been sent to the printers.
The Yorke Island Gator Project
One of the issues on Yorke Island is the transportation of veterans and others that may be mobility challenged. In addition, much of the work on the island is done in the Fort area resulting in the requirement to move all the equipment up the hill. There was certain 5 gal jerry can that almost did your president in while carrying it up the hill! The solution seems to be the purchase of a John Deere Gator™HPX615E. Our non-profit society discounted price comes out to $14,983.30 taxes in. The concept is that the Gator would be housed in Sayward, loaded up and transported to Yorke Island via the usual landing craft and returned after every use. Would you like to donate to this worthwhile cause? Charitable tax receipts will be issued. ​Please use interac e-transfer and send to president.vcrgunners@gmail.com
