White Rock Leisure Services has added new summer excursions.

Join us for a day at the PNE on Aug. 31, with highlights that include Dal Richards Orchestra, Superdogs, family theatre, and much more.

Or, on Aug. 24, come with us to Bowen Island. This trip to beautiful Bowen Island has been added due to the extreme popularity.

There is still room on the following exciting trips: Vancouver Art Gallery’s The Colour of my Dreams on Aug. 20; Salt Spring Island with Joy Brown on Aug. 25; Anacortes Whale Watching and Wild Life Cruise on Aug. 29; and Whatcom County Art Tour and wine tasting on Aug. 30.
