Dear Editor,
On December 6, John Weston, our Member of Parliament came over to Bowen to attend and honor Mayor Jack Adalaar’s integrity and accomplishments at his memorial service.
Weston also took time to tour our recycling centre, and the Nick Knack Nook where he donated a coat and bought two nick knacks.
Rob Forbes and a Museum committee asked John to discuss how they might promote local history in a way that would also benefit the island’s economy. An interesting exchange of ideas followed.
John Weston has spent record time for an MP visiting Bowen, listening and working to get grants for various island projects.
Mary Ann Smith
