Youth Group 2023
The next Peninsula Youth Group meeting will take place on February 19 from
3:30 - 6:30 PM. All youth are welcome to attend.
We are off to a good start with a great group of youth gathering every two weeks. It includes a shared meal, and we could use some help there. Please consider if you could provide a basic dinner for 8-10 people on a Sunday evening. A few people contributing once (or twice) this season will go a long way.
Please contact Kathy (kcawsey@eastlink.ca) if you can help or have any questions. Many thanks from the Youth Group!
