Duke of Edinburgh Program Canada

I found this note over 10 years ago when my friend was going through her father's papers after his death. We found this in a plastic fishing license holder, without a clue as to where it came from. My friend was getting ready to throw it away, but I couldn't let her.

It has been in storage ever since.

The note reads:

"To the Finder, August 4, 1985

We are sending this note from Tousit Falls on the West Coast Trail. We are 6 air cadets on trail for the Duke of Edinburough program.

We are Mr. J. Donohue

If this is you, please leave a comment and let me know! I'd love to hear the background story on this note!

 

Thank You Note ...

(I found this note in Grammie's papers ... like me, she kept everything!)

((And I'm so glad she did, because I can share them here!!!))

Dear Mrs. Nickerson,

Thank you so much for the terry set, mirror and rattle you and Eva gave to Leland. I know he will use them often and appreciate your thoughtfulness. I also think of the note you sent on back of the card you sent us and hope we can live up to all the nice things you said.
