The CDC Annual Golf Tournament sadly has been cancelled this year. We are a very social bunch and it just would not have been the same with the Covid Restrictions in place this year. Please stay tuned though for a fun raffle coming up in the next month or so featuring some of the most sought after prizes that we usually have on our silent auction table. We will miss seeing all of your faces this year but we will be back better than ever next year...fingers crossed .

Just a note to let our families who have registered for Preschool for September that we did send out a orientation day/time letter on August 21st on Hi Mama, if you haven't received the email please call the Centre.

Family Play and Learn will reopen on Sept 9th, we will post sign up sheets September 2nd.

Sorry for the inconvenience but Amanda is under the weather and should be back tomorrow Friday(August 14th), she will post Family Play & Learn sign up for next week by 10 am tomorrow.

Just a little note to our Family Play and Learn Families, we will be putting Next weeks (July 20-24) sign up sheets out tomorrow July 15 around 11:00 am.

A great big thank you to Pizza Hut for the delicious donation of six large pizzas to feed our hungry crew. It was very appreciated and oh so good!!

For more information please contact the CDC at 250-785-3200 or [email protected] https://youtu.be/n1hLGi8OBcY
