the ranchmen's club near Elgin BC (902 Result(s))

Originally the pub was a Bank of Montreal. In fact, the wall behind the bar is where the old vault used to be. As you look out the front windows you see the railroad tracks and beyond that the Haney Wharf and the mighty Fraser River. When Don and Bernice Gehring purchased the building in the 70's they had the intent to create a neighbourhood pub and chose the name because the tracks he rode on and stole from run east-west right across the street. As you sit and enjoy the great craft beers you can 'hear the train a comin' ' and feel the rumble of the big engines while eating your pub lunch.

Please welcome her to the GEWC team!Marlies Guenther, I was born in Vancouver and have lived here for most of my life, except for a brief period in the 80's when I lived in Ontario, where a lot of my family is from. I also spent 10 years living on the Sunshine Coast in a small town called Egmont. I now call sunny (!) Port Coquitlam home and have lived here for 3 years. I have spent most of my career in the accounting field and after nearly 20 years of working as an accountant in various industries including manufacturing, heavy equipment, and construction, I decided to start my own bookkeeping business. I truly love what I do and never tire of crunching numbers . When I have free time, I like to spend it outdoors taking in all that the west coast has to offer. I enjoy cooking and entertaining and am passionate about learning and self-improvement. I also love spending time with my 10 month old puppy, Shelby.I am very excited about joining Lynne and the team at the Golden Ears Winter Club. I look forward to learning all about the curling world and meeting the members of the Club.
