Collection/Fonds: Donald Copan collection

Description Level: Fonds

Physical Description: 2 cm of textual records + 3 architectural drawings + 17 photographs + 1 scrapbook album (727 photographs + ephemera)

Scope and Content: Collection consists of material collected and created by Donald Copan while he was an active member of the Burnaby Centennial '71 Committee and as founding President of the Century Park Museum Association. The fonds includes a scrabpook album of photographs and ephemera documenting the Burnaby Centennial '71 Committee's involvement in celebrating British Columbia's Centenary of Confederation between January and December 1971 including Burnaby's Commemorative Project - Heritage Village (Burnaby Village Museum); plans and reports regarding the creation of Heritage Village and a small collection of records regarding British Columbia Summer Games that Burnaby hosted in 1984 and 1997 as well as a small collection of photographs of a wedding taking place at Willingdon Heights United Church. Fonds is arranged into three series: 1) Copan album series 2) Heritage Village project series 3) Copan family photograph series 4) B.C. Summer Games series

History: Donald "Don" A. Copan was born in Victoria B.C. in 1928 and moved with his family to East Vancouver in the mid nineteen thirties. Don graduated from Britannia High School in the nineteen forties and graduated from the BC Provincial Normal School in 1948. In 1952, Don married Barbara Thomson. The couple moved to Highlawn Drive in 1954 where they raised their two sons Angus and Todd. Don and his family were active members of the Willingdon Heights United Church. Don's teaching career began at Westridge Elementary School. He worked in Burnaby as an educator, including serving as the Principal of Twelfth Avenue Elementary School and retired from teaching in 1983. He served on the 1958 and 1971 Burnaby Centennial Committees and was the founding President of the Century Park Museum Association (the non-profit society that operated the Heritage Village Museum from 1971 to 1989, now Burnaby Village Museum). Don served on the Executive of the Century Park Museum Association (CPMA) every year of the organization's existence. Don's wife Barbara Copan was also active in the CPMA, as a volunteer with a focus on the gift shop. In 1982, Don became Burnaby's first "Citizen of the Year" and was awarded the Kushiro cup for his volunteerism. Don was also involved in many other community organizations in the 1970s, including serving as President of the Burnaby Region, Boy Scouts (1975), and as a community resource person of the Board of Burnaby Big Brothers Association. He was Chairman of the Burnaby Family Court for seven years and Chairman of the Lower Mainland Family Court Committee for four years. He was also President of the Burnaby Teachers' Association circa 1974. Barbara Copan died in October 2017 and Don died in June 2020.
