Father’s Day 2020

June is here and it’s been a warm spring so far. We’re crossing our fingers that we’ll get all the rain out of our system this week and catch a sunny weekend to celebrate Dad. However, Father’s Day may look a little different this year so we have some local ideas on Sunday, June 21st.


Go fish

fishingThe weekend to celebrate Dads also marks BC Family Fishing Weekend.

During BC’s Family Fishing Weekend free fishing events for anglers and families are held around the province. This is your opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors with loved ones and learn the joys of fishing. Knowledgeable volunteers are on-hand to teach you the tricks of the trade.


Dine in or Take out

Lynn Valley Village is a great place to treat Dad to a meal as dine-in restaurants, Browns Socialhouse and Valley Sushi are open for both dine-in and take-out now. Delany’s Coffeehouse is also open for take-out and you can sit down outside on their patio. Plus, Nourish Market has lots of treats for Dad to enjoy.

Special Delivery for Lynn Valley Care Centre

We have launched Project Special Delivery, a community-wide effort to share heartfelt good wishes for everyone in the LVCC.


We have heard from many of our readers who are searching for a way to show their support for the residents of Lynn Valley Care Centre and all who are working so hard to provide them with care.

So we have launched Project Special Delivery, a community-wide effort to share heartfelt good wishes for everyone in the LVCC. You can participate right from your home!

Please write or draw your positive message on a letter-sized piece of paper, using a large font or clear handwriting. German and Farsi speakers, messages in your language are especially welcome! And kids’ art always helps brighten people’s day. Just photograph or scan your contribution and send it to [email protected] (subject line: Special Delivery) as soon as you can.

We are aiming to have at least 200 well-wishes by the end of Monday, so we can deliver a strong message of love and compassion to the LVCC on Tuesday.

We understand that people want to help and that Lynn Valley is generous so we will let people know of any further specific requests for aid.

We know you’re up for this, Lynn Valley! Thanks in advance for your participation and feel free to share this project with friends and family.

 


Helping out in other ways

“Staying at home” is often easier said than done. That’s where we want to lend a (well-washed!) hand. If you are under the weather but need something picked up or delivered (be it groceries, medication, a school child or ??), please let us know if we can help you or if you might be available to help others.

Email us or text Jim Lanctôt 778.991.6284 or Kelly Gardiner 604.644.3936. If we can’t do it personally, we’ll do our best to find someone who can.

Let’s look after each other. It’s what neighbourhood is all about – in good times and hard times. And remember: confidence, hope, and good cheer are more contagious than any virus. So let those be the weapons we bring to this battle!

Celebrating Easter in New Ways

With Easter coming up on April 12th, we’ve had to put some thought into how to honor this annual celebration in new ways. Here are a few creative community building and celebratory ideas we’ve come up with to keep the Easter spirit going (since the Easter Bunny is a good friend of ours).


DECORATING SPIRIT

We’d like to see some community Easter spirit! We’re suggesting that you decorate your home, garden, or front windows for Easter so that people out walking can enjoy some Spring vibes. Dig out those pastel colored Christmas lights, paint rocks to look like eggs, add some artificial or real flowers to your garden or draw some sidewalk chalk art. It’s a great time to get creative and makes for an entertaining project for kids.

 


CONTEST ALERT

Follow us on Facebook where we are posting a daily WHERE’S BUNNY? photo search contest.

Then email us directly with your best guess of where in Lynn Valley the photo of our Easter Bunny was taken and you’ll be entered to win a super awesome (yet to be determined) Easter Prize!
