Upstairs
at the Sooke Legion - ready for the evening's food and fun,
thanks to the work of many Lioness and our ever-helpful
Sooke Lions.

This
is what the fundraiser is all about - we donate dozens of
"Santa Sacks" filled with toys, books, and a variety
of mitts, scarves, sweaters, and treats for needy families
in the area of Sooke to Port Renfrew. Families are identified
according to their needs by staff at the Co-operative Association
of Service Agencies. Only the details-number of members
in the family and their ages-are provided to us.
