Anniversary for one of the great organizations in our city, Burnaby Family Life. You can read about that on p.16. There’s also a story about some terrific programs for people suffering with dementia run by Burnaby Seniors Outreach (p.28).
Now that 2020 is behind us, surely things can only get better! Of course, there may be naysayers, but we are certainly hoping for better days ahead in 2021!
As we embark on this New Year, be sure to support our locally-owned small businesses that have taken a huge hit in the past year. As you do, we hope that you will all enjoy a happy, prosperous and healthy New Year!
The New Year generally brings resolutions, and our feature story of a Martial Arts Gym in South Burnaby (p.21) will give inspiration for you to try a new way of getting fit! Also, 2021 is the 50th
