BOOK SHARE

Book club with a twist! This is an opportunity to get together with other book lovers and share books.  The idea is to let others know about a great book you've read and loan it out if you are comfortable (not everyone likes to share their books and that's okay). We will be meeting the second Sunday of the month from October to June at Elizabeth's house. Please contact Elizabeth at 250-809-9160 or email if you wish to attend so that she can reserve tables.

BOCCE

Bocce is played on a 'drop-in' basis EVERY WEDNESDAY from May until the end of September. It takes about 5 minutes to grasp the concept of the game and NO experience is necessary. In fact, experience does not seem to improve one's game! Just snuggle up to that boccini...and you may be a winner! Refreshments and/or ice cream after.
