Patrick Proudlock
Patrick Proudlock, Director
Patrick Proudlock has lived in Parksville since 1999. Regarding the Parksville Community Centre, Patrick looks to the past and the future.
In 1922, a hundred years ago, Parksville was a village of 500 people. The Parksville Women’s Institute voted to acquire waterfront property for a community park and a community hall. Since then, hundreds of individuals, community groups and local businesses have contributed many hours of work and money to build a community centre.
Now, Patrick sees that this generation is as needy of a central meeting place as a century ago. He is convinced that today’s Parksville residents will carry the legacy with a fresh new vision.
