Hello, given your participation in the West Shore/Sooke region focused service providers networking event, I thought I’d send this along too (and fyi, HOLD the date for October 28th for the 4th annual networking event – more info to come shortly!).
Summer is coming and it won’t be long before families are looking for fun and ideally free or low cost options for their children to enjoy!
After last year’s successful launch of a West Shore-Sooke Free & Low-Cost Summer Programs resource, we’ll be doing it again this year and invite you, as a valued community partner and Village network member, to have your summer programming included in this resource that many local families founds so very helpful. I appreciate that some of your organizations do not offer such programming – either way, good for you to know of this resource and its utility for families across our region.
If interested and applicable, please share your relevant information via this LINK by May 15, 2026. We’ll then finalize the resource and ensure it is shared widely – with you as well, of course. Please feel free to share this invitation with others within and beyond your organization that we might have missed.
Many thanks,
Cindy
