COMMUNITY CENTER ACTIVITES & COVID
In an effort to keep our community safe the center will follow the provincial COVID guidelines. Hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies are available.

HALLOWEEN AT THE CENTER
In recent years we have offered a drive-up trick-or-treating event at the community center. Children may participate outside the decorated community center between 5-6pm on Halloween evening. Please feel free to offer Trick or Treating at your home if you wish!

Register in advance so we can ensure we make enough treat bags for everyone! Text or call Sara at 902-916-3476 by 2pm, Sunday, October 29th. (texting preferred!)

Everyone can lend a hand & help make this a magical, spooky evening for the children!

  • Community members can drop off treats Saturday & Sunday (Oct 28 & 29th) by 1pm at the center and volunteers will create treat bags.
  • It would be lovely if pumpkins(carved or uncarved) were dropped off to be displayed!

Center Access

AED at the Center
The Community Center has installed an automated external defibrillator (AED). It’s an easy-to-use, medical device that can analyze the heart’s rhythm and, if necessary, deliver an electrical shock(defibrillation) to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm. The device is on the wall in the entrance of the Center and can be accessed by persons with a door entry or through a call to 911 (the AED is registered with 911 and EMS. They can provide a door code for emergency access if the AED is needed).
