'Deeply loved and missed. Forever in our hearts.'

May is Mental Health Month, a time to continue the important work of reducing stigma and increasing access to resources and tools for those who are struggling. Equally vital is the need to recognize, support, and care for those who walk alongside a loved one through their mental health journey.

May 17 marked the 80th anniversary of May Day events in Pender Harbour and a little rain simply added to the fun.

Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society held its annual Salmon Release Festival May 17, at Chapman Creek Hatchery. Hundreds of visitors helped release some 18,300 coho salmon smolts into Chapman Creek.

From earliest times, people leaned on their neighbours for help and support –– to build a barn, bring in the harvest, to share food and skills in times of emergency.

Getting to know your neighbours, gathering information, developing lines of communication, identifying skills and unique needs in your neighbourhood and learning how these can best be met by neighbours themselves mean we will all be able to respond more quickly and effectively resulting in reduced demands on our already stretched resources such as fire, ambulance and search and rescue.
