Happy holidays to all!

Starting tomorrow, Wed Oct 4, we will have art therapy twice a week; on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Melody is doing a practicum here for her future Masters in Art Therapy. To begin with, she will be working with the group, and will then gravitate towards working one-on-one with the clients.

More good news: our mask painting project materials have finally arrived. Have a look here at the project that grabbed our interest: Unmasking Brain Injury

We have donated some of our garden space to a greenhouse for the Powell River Food Bank. (The food bank is separate from PR Brain Injury Society – they do have the same board members though).

The Community Garden Grant from Food Banks Canada has financed the purchase, and assembly is by the Powell River Rotary Club – thanks guys; you’ve done a great job so far. Too bad the weather wasn’t cooperating  – putting up those panels in strong winds is quite the challenge.

On Tues Aug 1, 2017, we are going to visit our chickens at their new home, which is a petting zoo south of town. We will see our cherished hens in their comfy surroundings and get to meet their fellow farm animals.

Phone or drop in to the centre on Duncan to learn more about this adventure and find out how to contribute food and arrange ride-sharing.  Farm is in the vicinity of Zilinsky Rd.

We will meet here at 9 am and leave by 10.
Then there is our Annual Picnic on Friday August 11, once again on Texada Island, at Shelter Point Park.

We are planning on going over on the 10:40 ferry, and returning on the 3:00 pm or 5:05 pm. Phone or drop in to sort out food. ride-sharing and other details. Ferry fares for passenger and vehicles will paid for by the society.

Meet here at 9 am.

On Monday June 26th at noon, at the Centre (101-7020 Duncan St, Powell River) we are having our Annual General Meeting (AGM).

We will have our reports, elect our new board, and provide you with a snapshot of the past year.
