Who doesn’t love a free, family-friendly, all-ages celebration? Especially when food is involved.
You’ll find all that and more at the 10th annual Quadra Village Day, Saturday May 12th from 9:30 am to 1pm.
I’ve been actively involved on the planning committee since shortly after moving to the Hillside-Quadra neighbourhood in 2006. It’s wonderful to see people pulling together – businesses, not-for-profits, citizens (young and old), community groups – in celebration.
We’re proud to be able to provide an event, open to all, that is completely free – including both pancake and healthy start breakfasts.
More information on our website.
Start off the day with breakfast, stay for the activities and demonstrations, pull up a seat to listen to wonderful music and watch talented dancers, visit the various community booths, and chat with your neighbours.
Musicians include:
Rob Rosborough and Ian Welsh, Tremble Aspen, Chris Ho, and Carmanah.
Dance performances by:
The UVic Cuban Salsa Club, The Chinese Seniors Dance Troupe, the Sons of Norway Folk Dancers, and the Vic City Breakers.
Don’t miss the Quadra Village Day Dance “flash-mob” at 11am.
Quadra Village Day would not be possible without the generous participation and support from our sponsors, and the help of over 100 volunteers.
