First Highway Bridge in Sicamous Across Channel
It was a red letter day, in ideal weather condition, on June 18, 1950 that the brand new and first highway bridge across the channel at Sicamous was opened. May Queen Yvonne Rokosh cut the ribbon which formally opened the last gap in the BC section of the Trans Canada Highway. Around three hundred people were present at the ceremony which was followed by afternoon tea at the Legion Hall, served by the Sicamous Women's Institute, sponsored by the local Board of Trade.
