Halfmoon Bay launches a new Information and Business Referral program supported by the Com-munity School in partnership with SCREDO. If you are a new company or have an existing business, contact Wendy White to better understand the advantages and benefits for joining. For details of the Local Trade Show and more, contact Wendy 604-551-8461.

HMB Elementary School is looking for volunteer readers. If this is of interest to you, contact [email protected].
Capilano Highway Services will be closing part of Redrooffs Road in front of Coopers Green Hall from Sept. 3 to 6 to upgrade culverts. This will affect the school busing during that time. If you live north of Coopers Green, your child can get picked up and dropped off by the bus just past the mailboxes near the exit to the highway. If you live between Francis Road and Coopers Green, the buses will not be able to pick up your child, resulting in other arrangements having to be made to get your child to and from school on those days. There is not a safe place for buses to turn around on that stretch of the road.
The school apologizes for the inconvenience this may cause but appreciate your understanding in this matter.
Please be vigilant. Between last Tuesday night and Thursday morning, gas was siphoned from a truck on Coopers Road. If you see any suspicious behaviour, please call local RCMP at 604-885-2266.
