St. George's Hallowe'en Walk on Oct 31

St. George's Hallowe'en Walk on October 31. We are hosting an outdoor Hallowe'en walk on Saturday the 31st from 4:30 - 7 pm. If you'd like to help decorate, we'll be starting at 2 pm creating some family groupings of inanimate objects, like brooms and shovels. We'll be accepting decoration donations, pumpkins, squash and will have a cash donation basket to support the Shelbourne Community Kitchen. You can drop items for donation off outside the church office.

Come on by. Bring your grandchildren for a short scavenger hunt and treat. Walk through yourself, or help with supervision and clear up. Please contact Joy with any questions. 250 889 7000
