Elders and community members of the Canim Lake Band were treated to their Fourth Annual Spa Day on Feb. 17, courtesy of professionals who offered a wide variety of services.

It took place in the band gymnasium, where visitors were pampered with massages, manicures, hair cutting and styling, and even had the opportunity to have their fortunes told.

Shirley Fraser, program co-ordinator and activity aide at the Elder Centre, started the now popular event as a means to cheer people up during the dreary month of January.

"It was a big hit and it just gets bigger and bigger every year. It gives everyone one a pick-me-up and makes them feel really good."
