Michael Charles Monday
We are constantly inundated with advertising convincing us to buy new things. Today’s society is all about spending money and upgrading. But there are always other options. There is a new program in town. The Columbia Valley Makerspace Society is a group that wants to help people learn to repair their broken items rather than discarding and purchasing new. We all have favourite items that are broken and wish that we could afford to have repaired. As it turns out, sometimes it is a very simple fix that we are capable of doing ourselves. This Saturday, September 23, bring your broken item to the Invermere Legion between 1 pm and 6 pm and they will help you take a look at it and fix it. This is a free event and includes free coffee and treats.
This coming Monday, September 25, get to the Horsethief Creek Pub to catch ‘Michael Charles’ live. Michael Charles is a Chicago blues legend and is a member of the Blues Hall of Fame. He is touring for the tenth straight year and will visit the corners of Canada, USA and Australia. This is an incredible opportunity to see a world-class musician here in the valley. It will be a fantastic ‘Live Music Monday’ that you should not miss.
Have you heard about those new corduroy pillows? They are really making headlines.
