We are kicking off the CISV year with one of our favourite annual events: Peace Night!
What? This is a welcome back event for all our travelers this past summer and an opportunity to reconnect with the CISV Victoria community.
When? Friday, September 29th, from 6pm–9pm.
Where? Peace Night will be taking place in Gordon Head, either at Fairburn Park (4025 Providence Pl) or in Maria Montessori Academy (1841 Fairburn Dr). We are still waiting on confirmation of the venue; however the park and the school are right next to each other so routes can still be planned accordingly. We hope to send out a confirmed location with you all ASAP.
Who? CISVers who traveled this year, their families, and all members of the CISV Victoria community. This is an all-ages event, so bring the whole family!
What?
This event will be organized in two parts:
6:00-7:30pm: Social Time.
- Delegates who traveled over the summer will have time to share their experiences amongst one another, with a series of activities led by our Steering Committee. There will also be designated confidants around, where delegates, leaders/staff, and parents of travelers can share any questions, comments, or concerns about anything that took place over the summer.
- Other family members, JBers who didn’t attend a CISV camp, and general members of the CISV Victoria community will have time to socialize, reconnect, and meet the Exec Board. This is free time to hang out, catch up, and ask any questions about our Chapter.
7:30-9:00pm: Presentation of Travelers.
- We had a busy summer as a chapter, sending 3 delegations to a Village in Italy, Youth Meeting in Ottawa, and Step Up in Vancouver. We also sent a JC and 4 staff to camps across Canada as well. Now it’s time to hear from them all! This is a marvelous time to hear from the participants, leaders, and staff in CISV camps over the summer and ask them questions about their experiences.
Accessibility info: Peace Night is accessible by the #27 bus. Parking is available alongside Fairburn Park on Providence Pl, or in the parking lot of Maria Montessori Academy.
