Meeting is "In-person Only"
Following a brief report from the Board Executive (please take note President Annette!!) and the election (acclamation?!) of next year's Board, new member Dave Conlon will give his presention Anyox, BC – Travelling to Canada’s Largest Ghost Town (which he just recently presented to CAPA!).
Anyox, British Columbia is a true ghost town with a rich, hidden history. Once a bustling mining hub in the early 1900s, Anyox was abandoned in 1935 after a devastating fire and the Great Depression which drove down the demand for copper. Today, Anyox is a relic of the past, with crumbling buildings and rusted machinery frozen in time.
In May of 2024, Dave Conlon of Freaktography.com travelled across the country and visited Anyox with full, unlimited access to capture and photograph what is left of this forgotten piece of Canadian history.
