Crofton Celebration
Happy 20th Anniversary to the Crofton Sea Walk
The Crofton Sea Walk turns 20!
This magnificent scenic boardwalk that wraps around the foreshore of Osborne Bay in Crofton is due to the tireless fundraising and organizational efforts of the Crofton Community Centre Society, a Registered Charity that is run by volunteers.
The Sea Walk has been a tremendously valuable addition to our sea front with locals and tourist’s alike taking in the majestic views daily. If you’ve never checked it out, come down to Crofton and enjoy a wonderful walk along the Sea Walk. The Crofton Sea Walk is accessible and a great way to enjoy the waterside along Osborne Bay. Visitors and locals enjoy fishing, crabbing and setting prawn traps around the local waters. The town’s close proximity to Salt Spring Island makes it a popular spot to visit. Boaters can visit by kayak, canoe, sail or by pleasure boat. There is space to moor at the government dock overnight or visitors can also use the local boat launch to stop for a few hours to walkabout town.
The Crofton Community
Centre Society also operates a newly renovated spacious gathering place available for rental for special events, weddings and birthdays and small intimate gatherings as well. The centre is run by volunteers and are always looking for more amazing people to join their team! All monies raised through rentals and catering are used to maintain the hall and provide community improvements and services for seniors, youth and citizens in our community and the larger Cowichan Valley and other Canadian charities. www. croftoncommunitycentre.ca
