Christmas Event Highlights

Jingle Elf and her trusty sidekick carolers!

“By all accounts our first Saltair community caroling event was a success!   Everyone contributed through making donations to the event, attending planning meetings for the event, preparation tasks for the event and or actually working at the event.  Considering the weather and it being the first, the outdoor event was well supported by the community.  Media attended and businesses that we approached supported us( The Great Canadian Dollar Store and Save on Foods).   This event included volunteers from outside Saltair.   We are fortunate to have the centre as a gathering place for this and other Saltair community events in the future.”
