This summer the Fernie Museum plans to hold an exhibit featuring all the underground tunnels in Fernie's downtown. The underground tunnels were for good ol' bootleggin. Fernie Gangsters carved out (literally) quite the cash making operation with moonshine and booze.
So far the museum is still exploring how they are going to present it, hopefully they get the financial support they need from sponsors so we can actrally go down in the tunnels.
So, hey, history can be cool!
However; we still have gangsters in Fernie, they just wear oversized clothes, snowboard and buy cheap beer.
