SUMMARY:Our Big Blue Backyard @ Beacon Park
DESCRIPTION:This presentation celebrates Ocean Week by exploring the local oceans around Sidney and the Salish Sea as living places of connection\, wonder\, and responsibility. We will highlight the marine mammals that make this region so remarkable\, and reflect on why healthy ocean ecosystems matter for the well-being of wildlife\, communities\, and future generations.\nWe will also acknowledge the deep Indigenous roots of this area\, including the W̱SÁNEĆ and Coast Salish peoples\, whose long relationship with these waters reminds us that land and sea are not separate from culture\, identity\, and stewardship. Their knowledge and history help us understand the ocean not only as a habitat\, but as a living relative and a source of continuity across generations. \nJune 4th @ 2pm-4pm

SUMMARY:Island Song Spring Choir  Concert - Dynamic Duos
DESCRIPTION:Island Song\, a non-auditioned women’s pop choir on the Saanich Peninsula\, is excited to announce their Spring concert “Dynamic Duos!” Join us as we showcase the power of togetherness and friendship by featuring famous duets and iconic partnerships from across the decades. These songs prove that two voices are better than one\, and our choir will sing these legendary harmonies with heartfelt enthusiasm! \nWe’ll also be running a “Duo Donation Drive” at the concert — a simple way to give a little extra and help families in need. A donation bin will be available in the lobby and all items will be taken to the Saanich Peninsula Lions Food Bank. \nThe idea is easy: donate items in pairs that naturally go together! These thoughtful combinations help make everyday essentials more complete and useful for those receiving them. \nExamples include: \n\nShampoo + Conditioner\nToothbrush + Toothpaste\nPeanut Butter + Jelly\nPasta + Pasta Sauce\nSoap + Facecloth\nCanned Beans & Rice\nSoup + Crackers\n\n(Please check the expiration dates on all items — the food bank won’t take anything with a date older than six months ago) \nBy donating matching items together\, we can help create a more comforting and practical experience for individuals and families accessing support. \nEvery donation\, big or small\, makes a difference. Thank you for helping us spread kindness — two items at a time.
