WE MAY BE CLOSED FOR THE SEASON… BUT OUR STORIES NEVER CLOSE!
Nobody on Bell Island ever needed a road number to give directions.
We'd tell you to go past where the old store used to be, turn left at the house that used to be green, keep going until you reach where so-and-so's grandfather lived, & if you got lost, just ask the first person you met!
Chances are, they'd know your parents, your grandparents, & half your family tree before they ever told you which way to turn!
That's Bell Island for you. An Island where roads hold memories, old buildings hold secrets, & every family has a worth telling.
Our #2 Mine Tour & may be closed for the season, but Bell Island's history never takes a holiday. The , the families, the shops, the schools, the neighbours, & the characters who made this Island what it is, their stories live on through all of us.
Bell Island Society, Our Doors May Close for a Season, But Our Lives On Forever.
What's a you STILL use when giving directions, even though it's been gone for decades? Or better yet, what's the funniest set of directions you've ever heard on Bell Island?
Let's fill the comments with memories & keep our Island stories alive!
