Community Connections Day - Thursday May 8 - Saturday, May 10, 2025

At Lake Trail Community School, 805 Willemar Ave. Courtenay, BC.
Lake Trail Community Education Society is hosting our 4th Annual Community Connections Day, expanded into three days from May 8th to May 10th!

Community Connection Day is a celebration designed to foster connections among neighbours, youth, and community partners. It aims to combat isolation, highlight a variety of services available in the Comox Valley, and, most importantly, provide a fun and enriching experience for all!

We are reaching out to community organizations, businesses and individuals to join us by offering a workshop or activity for community members. This is an opportunity to share the work you do, and be a part of a meaningful day of connections.

For ease of organization, we are asking that you fill in the information below. Thank you for your time and interest in participating in Community Connections Day!
