Physical Description: 1 photograph : coloured ; 9 x 9 cm

Scope and Content: One of the Confederation singers standing on the side of a road. A van in the background along with a landscaped garden. She is wearing a green and white dress, has a parasol and a white hat with a large green feather as well as a matching bag.

History: Mrs Bate was a church choir singer. In 1976 she was asked to help form the Confederation Singers at the North Burnaby Confederation Seniors Centre. She started the choir and conducted it until her retirement in 1986. The costume, as seen in several photographs and also in the Burnaby Vilalge Museum collection, was made by members of the choir who made similar 1890's period costumes for themselves. The choir sang in seniors centres and at special events at Century Park (now known as the Burnaby Village Museum). They were also invited to sing at Government House in Victoria.
