February 8-16 is Spirit of BC Week. All over the province, communities are gathering to celebrate our Spirit. This year, the theme is Spirit of History...both of Powell River and of family. To help our community celebrate, Local Loco’s will be hosting a banner-painting evening on Tuesday, Feb. 12, at 7p.m. The Spirit of Community Committee of Powell River has purchased blank banners which, when painted, will hang on lamp posts to decorate the city. Come out and lend your vision and talent to this evening. Bring ideas for painting the banners with the this theme. We’ll be painting two of the 6 x 3-foot banners that evening and will supply paint and brushes. Just bring yourself–and your creative spirit!
