Greetings to another week of fun and sun in Campbell River! The sun keeps shining and that's OK with us; there's no better place to be than here in September - one my personal favourite months of the year. It's a little dry out there so be careful out there - we know one day the rains will come but until they do it crispy in the forests.
Our week kicks off with 'Perry Johnson" at Spirit Square Tuesday from 11:30am to 1pm. Bring your lunch, sunscreen and sunglasses - it's looking to be a beautiful day.
Wednesday at Serious Coffee attend Jam Night at 6:30pm, and on Saturday bring the whole family down for a Seriousl-ly Fun Tour de Rock Fundraiser from 11-3pm.
