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!

We’re having a booth at the Brackendale Fall Fair on Saturday, Sept. 9th from 10 am – 5 pm. We will be selling artwork to raise funds for our programs and services that we provide to the Sea to Sky community. Show your support by joining us at the fair and taking home a beautiful piece of art for your home.

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!
