New temporary display

Hi there everyone -

Next week is Heritage Week in BC, and this year's theme is "Heritage of Sport and Recreation: Community Pride, Active Living." We've just finished putting up a temporary display for Heritage Week that celebrates sports and recreation on the Sunshine Coast. The display features Coast sports memorabilia, including a baseball bat and jersey from Gibsons' own Ryan Dempster. There are also several fantastic photographs from the Coast's early days. Come on down and have a look! We're open Tuesday through Saturday, 10:30 to 4:30.

Also, don't forget to drop by on Heritage Play Day, which is on Saturday, February 20th from 1:00 until 4:00. It'll be great fun for kids and their families - we'll make old-fashioned crafts and toys, just like they used to in the days before Nintendo came along. Come on by and make origami cranes, whirligigs, balancing birds, totem poles, and more!
