Weekend Family Peer Support Group Christmas Party

This will be our 19th year providing a traditional Christmas Dinner for the mentally handicapped adults & their immediate families who belong to the Weekend Family & Peer Support Group in Delta.

Thanks goes to past Ladner Rotarian Thom Wright for introducing this project to our club in 2005. Thom was only with our club for a short while, but his involvement with the Delta Branch of CMHA led to our club providing this annual Christmas Dinner which is much appreciated by both attendees and volunteers.

Our Weekend Family & Peer Support Group Christmas Party is scheduled for Saturday December 14 at Ladner Community Centre.   You are encouraged to bring your family and friends to help with this event.

This year, we need volunteers to cook boneless turkey roasts and hams at home and bring to the event at 5:15 PM.

And of course, lots of volunteers are needed for unloading/loading rental dishes, food & supplies, prepping & cooking veggies, prepping salads, set up of the hall, making coffee & punch, serving food, clean up.  This is a hands on project that the whole club can be involved in.  Friends & family welcome to join in and help with the following
