KEEPING FIT
A GOOD LEAD IN CANADA. British Columbia is the leading province of Canada in the modern movement for physical health and recreation. In the first year of the new nationbuilding scheme —the winter of 193435 —British Columbia had .19 recreational centres, with a registration of 2,768 members. In 1938 the number of centres had increased to 92, with a registration of 20,004, and the authorities were then concerned with 100 new requests for the establishment of additional centres.
The work of the Centre is to previde an inspiration, to give advice and to assist in organising, and also to induce those, who, for various reasons, would be unable to take part in sports and games, to join in the wholesome activities which the Centres provide.
