Open Air Burning

This is a reminder that fire permits will be required for yard waste and open air burning on and after April 1st. However, fire forecasting is predicting a warmer, dryer spring than even last year's which led into a very serious summer fire season. With about six weeks left until the official start of fire season, we urge you to get all of your yard waste burning done now. It is possible that we may not be giving out permits for burn piles in April.

Remember that Provincial and Federal regulations do not allow for burning of construction or demolition materials. A good suggestion for your garden branches etc. is to rent, borrow or buy a wood chipper (they come in many sizes) and chip your yard waste to use as moisture retaining mulch around your plants during the coming dry weather.

Spring Card Gala

We had unanimous requests for another session at the Christmas Card Gala, so we are doing it again...a great way to beat the winter blues.  A full day of crafting goodness, along with a delicious lunch featuring Virginia Lamb's homemade clam chowder. There is no registration fee…the only costs are for materials and lunch.

This day is suitable for both novice and experienced card makers to start...or add to...a stash of all occasion cards. Using a variety of sentiments for birthday, thanks, get well, sympathy, wedding, graduation, etc. you can customize your cards to fit the occasions you need. If you've never made cards before, or it's been a long time, you can be confident you will make some lovely cards. All the design and cutting has been done in advance, allowing you time to assemble, decorate and customize your cards. This would be a fun day for moms and kids to do together and they can attend for the cost of one, plus lunch.

If you missed out last time, register early for this day of crafty fun with friends and neighbours. seaspray@telus.net or 250-246-3699.

If you have seafood allergies or require a vegetarian lunch option, please let me know when you register. 

WHEN: Sat. Feb. 27 10:30 am to 4:00 pm Forbes Hall

Materials fee: $40 Lunch $10

Things to bring: small paper snips or crafting scissors, tape runner or snail and liquid crafting glue such as Tombow. Tape runner and glue will be available for purchase. Pls advise if you will need them when you register.
