The Sea to Sky Hospice Society had a booth at the 25th annual Brackendale Fall Fair this past weekend. A huge round of applause to the wonderful volunteers that came out to assist with selling many pieces of artwork as we worked to raise funds for the programs and services that are provided for free to the Sea to Sky Community.

There was a fantastic turn out of people enjoying the day, kids rolling in the hay, racing zucchini boats and sampling delicious food. We sold many of our donated pieces and enjoyed telling interested people about the art and the Hospice Society services.

A big thank you to AJ of Canadian Tire for kindly donating two big folding tables that provided space for us to work off of, selling memberships and displaying artwork. Thanks for your support AJ!
