Frank Taylor, Past President LFCA / LFH :: LFCAMANY DEDICATED INDIVIDUALS have served as President for the Ladner Fishermen’s Cooperative Association (LFCA) / Ladner Fishermen’s Hall (LFH) since our inception in 1943.

He initially served as President 1974 through 1981. Homer Stevens followed as President from 1982 through 1989. Frank was again elected President in 1990 and served 28 consecutive terms through to and including 2017.

FISHIN’ BOATS IN LADNER HARBOUR are a familiar sight to both citizens and visitors to the quaint riverside community of Ladner.

Mairi Maxwell submitted a selection of images, above and beyond photos she entered into the Fish Hall 75th Photo Contest. The above image of Sliver Grizzly and Pacific Grizzly being one… she wanted us to share these memories, which she hopes will be enjoyed by the fishermen who sail in them.

Enjoy!
