2 Great Holiday Events Coming Up

Get an early start on your Christmas celebrations with these Vancouver Sunrise events:

Saturday, December 1 - Our traditional club Christmas party, with a fabulous potluck dinner and wine, great Sunrise fellowship, and the hilarious gift exchange with frequent theft opportunities. Saturday evening at Bev and Lawrence Bicknell's home in Port Moody, BC. For info and to register, contact Abigail Turner.

Sunday, December 2 - For 25+ years, Sunrise has been bringing holiday cheer to the shut-ins and other senior participants in the West End Seniors' Network. Some 300 seniors will gather in a hotel ballroom for eggnog, a buffet Christmas dinner with turkey and all the trimmings, carol singing, entertainment and even a visit from Santa. The Bayshore Hotel provides the venue and most of the food, Sunrise Rotary organizes the rest, and young people from Strathcona Community Centre and King George Secondary School lend a hand. A great way to share the holidays with seniors who really look forward to this annual event. Matthew Lynam is the key club member on this Rotary community service project, so be sure to ask him how you can help.
