Wednesday, December 25, 2019 at 10:02PM It's time once again to Thank you!! for your continued support of cash register receipts from the 49th Parallel grocery.
The receipts go to the Harvest House food bank in Chemainus. A percentage of the cash register receipts is calculated and redeemed for 49th gift certificates and distributed to food bank recipients.
If you would like to drop off your 49th receipts a shoe box is located right beside the Post office drop box for your convenience.
Many thanks again.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Monday, December 23, 2019 at 10:14AM There will be a Christmas Eve service at Pioneer Camp Tuesday evening from 7 to 8.
It will be in the room to the left (or west) of the dining room. The school children who performed Christmas pieces on xylophones at their Christmas concert will be playing them again for us.
This is an informal service with the Christmas story being read to the children, some special guests and lots of singing.
Do come and join us and bring your guests.

Monday, December 23, 2019 at 10:11AM We have accumulated far more baubles for Christmas tree decoration than we are every likely to use. If anyone would like some, please let us know. They are mostly single colour, round, shiny, very pretty on the tree.
Also some so-called Victorian tinsel, twisted polished metal strips to hang from the tree rather than modern tinsel.
