Events and Activities at the Seaside Centre
Check out Our Facebook Page for Current and Upcoming Events, Details and Updates
The Seaside Centre is a valuable community asset, vital to keeping the surrounding communities engaged. In addition to renting the Seaside Centre to community members, we partner with organizations and host our own events. These events bring people together who might otherwise be alone and provide an opportunity for neighbours to gather, see old friends, meet new people, and catch up on community news.
Free Christmas Family Fun Day, free Christmas Dinner and the September Craft market are all special events that are back for 2024. The quilting club, crafting club and yoga sessions are currently active and more events that support community wellness and fundraising are in the works.
Quilting Together
Every Tuesday from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.
We welcome seasoned hand quilters and teach newcomers. Join us, make new friends with no fee to participate. Quilt tops are paid for by the maker or sold by us with all funds donated to the Seaside Centre. Ask us about our rates to finish your quilt top.
