"I'll tell you what I am grateful for, and that's the understanding that the most important things in life are family and friends, and the time we can spend with them."

Good Morning!

These meetings are always my favourite! Welcoming new members!

We officially inducted Pam Jones and Ryan Bird into our Sardis Kiwanis Fam! These outstanding community members will be fantastic additions to our club, and we look forward to seeing them at our service projects and meetings!

Thank you for your dedication to the children of Chilliwack and the world!
This morning we also welcomes Sue Attrill, Executive Director at Chilliwack Hospice and current City Councillor (although, we did make sure this visit stayed with a Hospice focus).
The Chilliwack Hospice has grown, especially in this time of recognizing that we all have grief and that for self care, it is important we look after ourselves.
The Chilliwack Hospice, which should not be confused with Cascade Hospice, operates now with a million dollar budget.
It was very exciting to hear that they now offer an 8 week Kids focused program for those who are dealing with grief. It is specifically geared to children ages 5 to 12.
Also a friendly reminder one of their yearly fundraisers happens very soon, the Hoedown for Hospice. $50 a ticket, includes dinner and it is at the Evergreen Hall. You will have the pleasure of seeing Kiefer and I there, we volunteered to bar tend for them during this event.
