While the debate rages on as exactly how to describe SaanichB次元官网网址檚 southern most tract - is it, or isnB次元官网网址檛 it a panhandel - the resuscitation of the Camosun Community Association continues.

The CCA is returning its at the Richmond elementary school, Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m.

In the meantime, the Camosun neighbourhood - which falls loosely from Derby Road/Shelbourne and juts southbound between Richmond and Foul Bay until about eight lots south of Haultain and includes half the Royal Jubilee Hospital - continues to stir debte.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 a panhandle, why wouldnB次元官网网址檛 it be,B次元官网网址� says Lisa Timmons, whoB次元官网网址檚 organizing the festival and is new to the CCA this year.

The CCA wants to foster a greater sense of community and the Fall Festival is a part of that renewed commitment, Timmons said. ItB次元官网网址檚 a big turnaround for a neighbourhood association that just three years ago.

B次元官网网址淭his area is so much more than a thoroughfare, itB次元官网网址檚 a vibrant community with a diverse set of residents, and itB次元官网网址檚 part of Saanich.B次元官网网址�

The grass roots family friendly event will offer a mix of entertainment and activities with a bouncy castle, live music with singer Mitchell Hahn of the Mosaics, and face painting.

B次元官网网址淲e are very fortunate to have [Richmond school tenant] Kaleidoscope Theatre hold an open house at the same time,B次元官网网址� Timmons said. B次元官网网址淭heyB次元官网网址檒l open up their classroom and will run some mini-theatre skits during the festival.

There will also be hot dogs, cake and classic games for kids including a corn toss and hourly draw prizes. A Saanich selfie station will be there to celebrate CanadaB次元官网网址檚 150th.

B次元官网网址淲e chose this location for the number of reasons first, to highlight Richmond school as an important public asset for the community, and to remind people this panhandle is actually part of CCA and is within Saanich boundaries and not Victoria,B次元官网网址� Timmons added.
