BCCA
November may seem to be a month in the middle. Slipped between fall and winter, bordering occasions, events and lifestyles on either side. However, it is in no way neutral. It can be hard, full of the ‘doing’ part of well thought out plans. It can be cold and long, or short and busy. Either way, it calls upon us to live through and do, and sometimes, dig down deep.
Be purposeful with your time. Make it count and count others in.
Remembrance can be a pillar of strength for us. Remember who you are, what you believe in and where you came from. Remember those who served and continue to serve, and why. Take time to learn and move forward in community life with care and generosity.
Lest We Forget. Remembrance Day Service – You are invited to attend:
-Saturday, November 11th
-10:30am at the Community Centre
-Outside Service (dress for the weather)
-Following the service, you are invited inside for coffee and a light lunch.
-At 1:00pm enjoy a performance with Tim Isberg – sponsored by BCPA.
-Please bring donated food items for the Veterans Association Food Bank.

Our regular programming of Pickleball, Artsy Afternoons, and Rumble & Roar is in full swing. Stop by the Centre or visit the Website to get involved in these fun activities.
So, without the distractions of summer, vacations and parties, let’s settle into November. Put into motion what you preach and turn your words into action. Shine on during this beautiful month of adventure.
