Christina Mahler and Cindy Hale wrote of their experience: Our amazing Metchosin dinner. Cindy and I, both recently lost our life partners. In the fall on a beautiful sunny day we decided to go on a walk together in Metchosin. We started at the Sunday market and found women selling raffle tickets for the senior community in Metchosin. The winner would get a gourmet dinner for 8 people served at their home. Well, we bought a ticket together and WON. [May 23] was our dinner date, which involved 6 cooks, each making a course and 3 of the cooks came over to serve us. Gourmet it was! It was one delicious dish after another. We truly enjoyed it all and had a most wonderful time together. A huge thank you to all of the cooks, Helen Fletcher for organizing it all. And a special thank you to Helen, Betty Hildreth and Barrett Fullerton for serving us so graciously.
Thanks to everyone who purchases tickets in support of Metchosin Seniors’ Association and the operation of the Senior’s Resource Centre!
