Where is Ladysmith you may ask yourself? We
are just west of Vancouver
City in British Columbia, Canada, across the
Georgia Strait. From Vancouver
City you go to Horseshoe Bay where you take
a 1 & 1/2 hour BC Ferry ride
across the Georgia Strait that takes you to
Nanaimo. Then from Nanaimo you
drive just 20-25 minutes south to Ladysmith.
Come on over and enjoy the friendly
atmosphere and people here in Ladysmith.
A little Ladysmith
history:
The town of Ladysmith's history begins as a coal mining town.
It was one
of numerous towns that were started as a result of the many coal
mines of
Central Vancouver Island. Coal baron James Dunsmuir had a
vision that
transformed the steep hillside looking out over Oyster Harbor into
a flourishing
community. The town thrived with the expanding coal markets,
but then diminished
after the Great Strike rocked the Island in 1912. The town
held on, with the help
of logging and other industries, and continued to build a secure
future for itself.
There are many historical sites to be seen in and around Ladysmith.
One of the
town's peoples' favorite places in the summer is Transfer Beach.
This is a lovely park like setting, with a playground for the children,
a snack bar,
and also the site of the Ladysmith Days Celebrations during the
August long
weekend. A new entrance to the Transfer Beach is being prepared
at the base
of Robert's Street, off the Island Highway. There is also
a plan being worked
on for the future development of the Beach site, and surrounding
property.
