History
Drawn by Mark Lewis of the Parks-Maintenance Dept for the 1882 - 1992 Centennial of Burnaby. Mark always loved birds-eye maps, and showed this map to his supervisors while the work was still in progress. They suggested the map could be a Parks Maintenance Centennial Project. Mark agreed, and completed the map, including Burnaby landmarks and sketches of wildlife. Several copies of the map were given to schools so students could colour them.

Physical Description
1 folder of textual records + 4 postage stamps
Scope and Content
File consists of a master copy of an article created by Paulene Hall for the newsletter "Guidelines Burnaby Royal Area" - "Accent on the Archives". Burnaby Guide archival materials were compiled from scrapbooks, photographs, newspapers, biographies and research to create articles for the newsletter. Subject matter within this file is about Phyllis Munday. In 1924 Phyllis with her colleague Annette Buck became the first women to reach the summit of Mount Robson. During her lifetime she scaled over 100 peaks many of which were in B.C.'s remote Coast Mountains. At Guiders' conferences Phyllis inspired many young Guiders with her stories about her life and Guiding experiences. Munday was granted the Order of Canada in 1973 for her pioneering efforts and for her dedicated service to the Girl Guides, St. John Ambulance and the Alpine Club of Canada. A stamp was created in her honour in 1998.
