Stand Easy: Legion introduces new birthday dinner benefit for members
15
The Peachland Wellness Centre is looking for a volunteer to co-facilitate their Bereavement Program. She/He should have a background in nursing, teaching and/or group facilitation experience. Having experienced a personal loss may help the potential facilitator identify with those that attend the program.
Beverage garden volunteers needed for May 19
The program runs continuously all year and is held on Thursday mornings from 10 – 12 noon at the PWC.

Special to the Peachland View Did you know that we have a Hidden Gem at the legion? Our kitchen is fully operational and they are now offering up a birthday dinner. Starting Friday, May 10 and every other Friday after that, if you have a birthday in that month, and are a fully paid up member of the legion, you can get your birthday dinner free up to a value of $10. Now that’s a deal! For further details, call the legion.
The Hidden Gem is also pleased to offer a Mother’s Day brunch this coming Sunday, May 12. The long weekend will once again see the legion hosting a number of events, including a dinner and dance on Saturday, May 18 and our beverage garden on Sunday, May 19. However, we can’t put on these events without your help. If you can spare a couple of hours to help with setup, sell drink tickets, serve drinks or flip burgers it would be greatly appreciated. For volunteer information, contact the legion at
250-767-9404. Our Peachland ambassadorial candidate was introduced at the society’s debut night, which was April 30. I am pleased to advise that Gabrielle Nixon is our candidate this year. Nixon will be introduced
to the legion membership at the general meeting on May 27. Our meat draws continue to do well on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. If you can help with any of these events, contact us at the number above.
