Saanich Volunteer Services Society's Board of Directors purchased a new bench and plaque to thank our past executive director, Brenda. She gave years of service to the organization, steering it through many changes wrought by the Covid 19 pandemic in her final years.


Please consider, if you're enjoying a walk around Cedar Hill Golf Course, taking a moment to rest on her lovely bench. Appreciate the peaceful view of the Olympic Mountains, witness the field of jumping grasshoppers, or laugh as a dog plays around the lone, historic Garry oak. If you'd like to volunteer, drop-in to tell us about yourself and we can inform you of the many opportunities for serving the Saanich community if you have the time and the inclination.
