Caption from metadata: "Don Brown surveys all that has grown from the South Burnaby Men's Club's initial investment of $7500 to begin acquiring properties in the heart of Burnaby in 1965. He says the playing fields and Bonsor Recreation Centre, where the South Burnaby Metro Club is now based, are "an oasis" in the densely developed Metrotown area."
