🍁Canada Day in Chemainus is shaping up to be a fantastic community celebration! 🍁

What happens when local organizations, volunteers, musicians, performers, and community groups all come together? A pretty fantastic Canada Day celebration.

Recently, the Chemainus + District Chamber of Commerce met with members of the Canada Day Committee, including Bev Knight (CVAS), Ron Waller (Chemainus Valley Historical Society), and Steve Smith (Royal Canadian Legion Branch 191), to hear about the exciting plans for July 1.

This year's celebration at Waterwheel Park, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, will feature performances by the Smutuq'sun Smune'ems Dance Group from Penelakut, live music, face painting, community displays, burgers, sweet treats, Canada Day cake, family activities, and much, much more!

The Chamber's Wednesday Market will also be taking place alongside the festivities, bringing local artisans, makers, bakers, growers, and small businesses into the heart of the celebration.

A big thank you to the Canada Day Committee and the many volunteers and organizations working together behind the scenes to make this event possible. We love seeing our community come together!
