Creative Options – Langley
October 5 Fraser Valley Supported Living Network hosted the CLBC Include Me Blitz. We had 4 surveyors attend and interview many of our individuals. A CLBC representative gave a speech to all that attended; we had families and caregivers in attendance as well. Each individual received swag for their participation.
Anita Palmieri celebrated 20 yrs with WJS and Maryjane Castillo celebrated 5 yrs with WJS.
Crafty Creators now have 3 store fronts, 1 at Columbia Coffee House in Aldergrove, 1 at Gossip Corner Cafe, and 1 at Sheffield & Sons in Langley. Sheffield and Sons owner pre-ordered 10 crystal necklaces and paid in advance for these items. The owner is now requesting to see other crafts made by the girls, as he is interested in displaying more items. The owner put in another order for mid November for more crystal necklaces, as they are selling well.
In conjunction with Choice’s seniors program we held our annual Summer BBQ on August 30th. This event was a huge hit. All staff assisted with this event and the manager and 1 person served BBQ’d the smokies and hotdogs.
