- Photograph of Marnie Kennedy (left) and Denise Fouchard (Dullum) (right) on Burnaby Mountain posing with a rendering of the Canada Summer Games Sports Mural by Ken Rainford.

The thousands of tiles were planned to make up the mural and were planned to be sold as a Summer Games fundraising project. Photograph appeared in a news article in The Columbian newspaper Nov. 24, 1972 with caption "GET WITH THE GAMES" as well as a news supplement "Canada Games Countdown" Vol. 1, No.1, December 1972 with caption on front page "A Mountain Mural".
