Santa and Mrs. Claus will be visiting us after dinner. There will be gifts for registered children.

Hall Decorating

The WLGLCA will be decorating the community hall for the Christmas party on Friday, Dec. 8 at 1:00 p.m. If you have some time, please come and join the fun. For more information, contact Gisele Poliseno at 250-395-9082.

Fire Department

It is the time of year that the Watch Lake North Green Lake Volunteer Fire Department (WLNGLVFD) would like to remind everyone who uses a fireplace and/or wood stove for heating, to have his or her chimney cleaned before the cold season approaches. This will eliminate the build-up of creosote in the lining of your chimney and reduce the risk of chimney fires.
