Read on: Last Tuesday the “giving” resulted in 723 pounds of food going directly to the Food Bank, and over $6,000 in cash – it was our biggest day in the history [...]

“Do a little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world”  ~ Desmond Tutu I saw this quote and immediately thought of how our Craig Bay Community comes together each fall to help The Salvation Army provide support to those in need in the Oceanside area.

WHAT IS ART WALL? The installation of the Acoustic Baffles in February 2020 necessitated the removal of the one and only painting in the Conservatory.

A working group [...]

The Way We Were

By |2023-12-14T12:38:49-08:00June 22nd, 2021|Social Committee Events Archive|

Thanks to more than a year of the Covid-19 pandemic, all manner of events have had to be cancelled across Canada and around the world. So, it’s no surprise that our Craig Bay community has had to do the same. We hope to soon return to using our Beach Club, and returning to the way we were.  We hope you’ll be reminded of memorable times and look to making new memories, as well as [...]
