March is the time to renew your annual membership. At the AGM last year, we passed a resolution that all memberships will run from April 1 to March 31 to coincide with the fiscal year end. If you purchased a membership last fall or more recently, your membership will be grandfathered into this coming year. If you have not renewed your membership since the fall or more recently, please follow this link to purchase your annual membership today.

RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP TODAY!

Your membership enables us to provide compassionate care to those facing life limiting illness or experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one.

Come out tomorrow, Saturday June 24th from 8am until noon, at Alice Lake, to watch Katie Coombs and the other swimmers of ‘Swim Wild’ as they swim in support of the Sea to Sky Hospice Society! All of the funds that she raises will go towards supporting the programs and services of the Hospice Society.

We are so grateful for this ‘third party’ fundraising initiative being done on our behalf, thank you Katie for thinking of us!

We are one week into our month of fundraising for the programs and services that we offer to the Sea to Sky community.  Join us today by creating a team in support of hospice or make a donation to help us reach our goal of $40,000! We are excited to report that the biking, hiking and running communities have all formed teams, and now the Squamish Seniors Line Dance Troop have joined as well! Get active this month in support of your Hospice Society!

Thank you to the Sea to Sky Singers, Squamish’s community choir for providing uplifting and beautiful songs to the residents in the hospice unit. Your lovely voices and beautiful music bring smiles to our days and we are so grateful that you stopped by this past week. Your voices add so much compassion to the care that is provided to the residents during their stay.

Please note, we had incorrectly  named the group as the Anglican Church Choir and have now corrected it for this post.

 

Anne Babuin, Diana Gunstone and Carlee Baker show off the beautiful new quilts.

Once again the Sea to Sky Hospice Society is very grateful to be the recipient of a gift of wonderful of quilts. These beautiful quilts have been handmade by the ladies of the local Squamish Quilters Guild. They will be used to provide comfort and warmth to persons receiving care through the Hospice Society services and also will be used as a means of raising funds for our programs.

Thank you Squamish Quilters Guild and Anne Babuin!
