This weekly event—every Wednesday from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.—is for any seniors who would like to drop by for tea or coffee, card games, and board games with friends. The community bus is available to pick-up and drop-off anyone who would like to attend but does not have transportation. By donation.
Oil painting with Marlene

Local Give program
Interior Savings’ Local Give program has given the HUB the opportunity to “pay it forward” with an act of kindness. They will be giving away “Christmas in a Basket”—containing a family membership to the HUB, everything needed to make a delicious Christmas dinner, and more, valued at $300—to one lucky family.
To enter, simply write down how you would pay it forward if you won (for example, “I’ll shovel my neighbour’s driveway all winter”), then email it to the HUB at ashcrofthub@gmail.com or drop it by the HUB office.
