Photograph of Susan Hrynkiw seated in front of a calendar page 'January 1961'. Caption reads: What's ahead for Kitimat in 1961? Crystal-ball gazer, six months old Susan Hrynkiw, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Ted Hrynkiw, 56 Capilano, is apparently delighted with what she sees, sunshine, happiness and chuckles probably. Here's hoping Susan is right and that 1961 will bring all that and prosperity to every one in Kitimat.

The Kitimat Chinese Association was founded in 1985. Their purpose was to connect all Chinese Canadians in Kitimat, with the local people too. They encouraged the members involved in the community to show and share Chinese culture with the people in Kitimat. Like activities in Multicultural Day, Canada Day, Canada Cancer Society's Relay of Life, etc. Every year they had three gatherings, summer picnic, Christmas and Chinese New Year. The association disbanded in December 2008 as most of the members got older and retired.
