Living Bowen first began as a group of people who were concerned about recent island developments, chief among them being the artificial turf playing field planned for BICS. Our intention was not to prevent sports from happening, or facilities being built, but to ensure that the needed facilities be built in a way that suits our vision of a vibrant, rural, natural Bowen Island. We are looking for positive solutions.
The group of Living Bowen members who met to discuss the AT field determined that a "Plan B" was a good idea, since there is a reasonable chance that the artificial turf field bids will come in over budget, and in that case a Plan B will be needed. Then various members of the group, with help from local experts, subsequently worked long and hard to draft the following document (downloadable .pdf), which explores the possibility of either revamping the current grass field at BICS, or creating a covered all-weather playing field in another location.
This document has been forwarded to the mayor and council.
