Thumbs up to all the sponsors for your support for today’s Earth Day event. We appreciated that Nils and many Councillors were able to join us. We were thrilled with your appreciation of our community connections and look forward to active collaboration in the future.
Thanks also to Monty Holding, Parks Commissioner for his words of recognition, Ray Herman, Manager of Parks and Recreation, and Chris Hyde-Lay, Manager of Parks Services, who have been very active in designing, building and erecting the beautiful new Uplands Park entrance sign.

A big thank you to all participants in the first Oak Bay Community Services Expo. This event hosted by Denise Savoie with the support of your Community Association connected many organizations. The attendance was overwhelming. People met and spoke with representatives of many federal, provincial, local, private and public organizations. The overall response heard was how great it was to meet “face to face” with experts.
The Community Association of Oak Bay appreciates the participation of Denise Savoie, Ida Chong, Carole James and Oak Bay Mayor Nils Jensen and Council. It couldn’t have been done in such a short time frame without Donna Forbes and Sarah Nantel from Denise’s office who made it all possible!

Time to get your summer on, and join us in the Oak Bay Tea Party Parade this Saturday!
Your Community Association wants you to join us with your bicycles, wagons, or even just your feet. We would love to see members out to have fun, and which will of course, draw new members. And you know how that works…the more, the merrier!
We are going to keep it simple again this year, with a no-emissions float…okay, small exception…we are keeping up the tradition of bubbles! We ride our bikes or walk together, bubble wands in hand (which the kids watching seem to LOVE), we laugh, we carry our banner and we have a great time, all while raising our community profile.
The Annual Tea Party Parade is an Oak Bay tradition. If you’re just out to watch, it begins on Saturday at 10:30AM from Windsor Park. The 45 minute parade winds through the streets of Oak Bay, ending at Willows Beach Park.
