In the Community

And gearing up for the next Trash Bash

Excitement was in the air at the Gibsons Public Market as local ice skaters giddily waited their turn to meet a Canadian champion: Elladj Baldé.

With spring on the horizon and a sense of hope for a return to pre-pandemic normalcy, the local Community Futures office is working with community partners and local businesses on the lower Sunshine Coast and Bowen Island, providing a variety of different services to people wanting to start, expand, franchise or sell a business in the community. 

The exhibition opens with a public reception on Saturday, March 11 from noon to 2 p.m.
