Canada Day Celebrations at the

Senior Lodges 

Seniors Lodges and Campbell River Salmon Festival

 

Everyone in the community should be able to enjoy the Community Canada Day Celebration, but many in the Senior Lodges are unable to travel downtown. To rectify this, Government, RCMP, Fire Department, Canada Day Committee representatives and Campbell River Salmon Festival Society take Canadian flags and pins, along with a Canada Day cake and take the Celebration to them.  The residents, along with family and friends enjoy tea and cake plus activities the Lodge provides.
