CAP 10

Capilano•s 10th Anniversary Planning

1978-79 is Capilano•s Tenth Anniversary.
For the last few months, an Initial Planning Group has been
developing plans for the celebration of this milestone- to let one
another, the community and the province know what Capilano College is
all about, what you have accomplished, what you are doing, and what
1 ies ahead.
Because the celebration will not really be successful
unless many Capilano people are involved, a Preliminary Schedule of
Special Events is now being proposed to all of you. We seek your
reactions and your volunteer support to help in the planning and
execution of the eventof your choice.
If you are prepared to offer your services to help with
an event, if you have an event to propose, or if you have any
reactions to the proposed Schedule which is attached, please let
any of the members of the Cap 10 - Initial Planning Group know before
Monday, February 27.
A revised schedule of events will be developed on the basis
of what we hope will be an enthus:iastic response.
