Sandy Hook Community Association Collection -- Sandy Hook, Page 5

Sandy Hook, a hilly peninsula jutting out in to Sechelt Inlet's east side, is located seven kilometres north of Sechelt. For almost forty years, seventy-three acres of this land was owned and logged by Herman Solberg until, in the 1960s, he sold it to the Capilano Highlands Development Company of North Vancouver. This company wasted no time in selling lots for development. First, cottages were built by and for summer and weekend visitors but gradually permanent homes appeared and now the majority of residents live year-round in Sandy Hook. The early residents formed an association primarily to organize improvements to the water supply. The first official meeting of the Sandy Hook Association was held in Burnaby on November 30, 1966 and elected representatives have been meeting regularly ever since to take care of Sandy Hook residents' concerns.
