Sept. 12th COMMUNITY DAY FEATURE:
SMILING FACES WANTED!
What’s the best part of Nanoose Community Day?
The people!

Neighbours catching up. Kids laughing. Old friends reconnecting. New friends meeting for the first time. Volunteers lending a hand. And plenty of smiling faces everywhere you look.

Community Day is really just one big excuse to get together and celebrate this wonderful little corner of Vancouver Island we call home.

Come hungry. Bring the kids. Meet your neighbours. Dance to the music. Check out the classic cars. Shop the market. Grab something from the BBQ. Have a cold one in the B**r Garden.
And most importantly, bring your smile.

The ABCs of Photo Organizing

Turn boxes of memories into an organized legacy.

Feeling overwhelmed by boxes of photos, albums, slides, negatives and old videotapes?

You'll learn:

✅ The ABCs of organizing your photos

✅ Where to begin with boxes, albums and loose pictures

✅ How to declutter without regretting what you let go

✅ What should be digitized—and why now is the best time

✅ How to preserve your memories for generations

BONUS

Why Digitize Your Old Media?

Learn why VHS tapes, camcorder tapes, film reels, slides and negatives are deteriorating every year—and how to protect those memories before they're gone forever.

Saturday, September 19

1:00–2:30 p.m.

Location: Nanoose Place Community Centre

COMMUNITY DAY FEATURE: KIDS FUN!
Warning: Serious Fun Ahead.

There may be bouncing.
There may be face paint.
There may be VERY important trucks that require VERY close inspection.
And there will almost certainly be kids who don’t want to go home.

Bring your little humans to Nanoose Place Community Day for:
• Bouncy slide madness
• Face painting transformations
• Sensory play and hands-on fun
• Touch-a-Truck for tiny truck fanatics
• Games, activities and general silliness

Parents, we haven’t forgotten about you. There’s live music, great food, classic cars, local makers and a B**r Garden. We’ve thought this through.
