Some of the treasures that have been for sale in past antique sales at the North Shore Community Centre. The Fall Antique Sale is just one of the Centre’s upcoming events.
The North Shore Community Centre Society is considered the heart of the North Shore in Kamloops for many, and taking a look at its busy schedule of events one can see why. “Right after summer things really pick up,” says the Centre’s event coordinator Dohn Smith, who is keeping the place hopping with one event after another this fall. Aside from the packed schedule of weekly adult classes and programs the centre offers, they have a handful of community
events on the horizon. In its tenth year, the Fall Antique Sale is set to take place on Saturday and Sunday, October 5 and 6. The sale is open to everybody with a general interest in antiques and has been a hit in the past. It will take place in the Centre from 9:00am to 4:00pm on Saturday and 9:00am to 3:00pm on Sunday. “We’ve had a really good response based on the success of our previous sales and will have as many vendors as we can fit,” says Dohn, adding that the vendors come from all over

There will also be a bake sale open all day and tea, sandwiches and other goodies available between 11:00am and 2:00pm. Finally, the popular weekly Flea Market is back on Sunday, November 3 after its summer break. This market is open every Sunday from November through March from 8:00am to 1:00pm. “A lot of our vendors like to go – continued on page 2
