📖✨ What a wonderful afternoon of stories, laughter, and connection!

Yesterday's first-ever Intergenerational Show & Tell at the Cowichan Library brought together community members of all ages to share meaningful items, memories, hobbies, travel adventures, and Halloween stories through the decades.

With participants ranging from young adults to older adults, the conversations showed that while our experiences may be different, great stories have a way of bringing us together.

A special thank you to our volunteer hosts Heather Jacques and Julia Clare, and to Our Cowichan and the VI Regional Library Cowichan for helping make this event possible.

We're already looking forward to our next Show & Tell in November! 💙
