Halfmoon Happenings

Halfmoon Bay

Halfmoon Bay branch of Sunshine Coast Healthcare Auxiliary’s famous baking sale will be held Nov. 21 at Trail Bay Mall from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will also be hand-crafted gift items and plants.

Library anyone? The Halfmoon Bay Reading Centre is a partnership between the Halfmoon Bay/Chatelech Community School Association, the Halfmoon Bay Information and Referral Centre and the Sechelt Public Library. It is a volunteer-run initiative to connect Halfmoon Bay residents of all ages with library services. Residents can order books online to pick up and drop off at Halfmoon Bay School. Every second Wednesday from 4 to 5 p.m. in the school library, you will be able to pick up books you have pre-ordered. There will be computers to use and assistance available. Each session will provide a theme, possibly a specialist on that subject, coffee/tea, and a chance to chat with friends and neighbours.

The Reading Centre will be open Wednesday, Nov. 18 from 4 to 5 p.m. in the school library. There will also be a used book sale to fundraise for the centre; if you have books you would like to donate, please call Halfmoon Bay Information and Referral Centre at 604-551-8461 or email [email protected].
