Richmond Youth Service Agency's U-Connect Crew will be hosting its 8th Annual Community Winter Dinner on Friday, Dec. 13 at the Thompson Community Centre Banquet Hall.
The dinner is run and prepared by the youth of U-Connect crew - a leadership group that allows youth to connect to their community through self-directed projects and an online magazine, Clix Magazine.
The dinner welcomes those who are new to Richmond and would appreciate a warm meal with their family and friends.
U-Connect has been planning for the dinner since October and fundraised to cover the costs of the food.
This year, members managed to raise $230 through a Krispy Kreme fundraiser at Canadian Tire.
Friday's meal serves up both familystyle and buffet-style dishes along with refreshments and dessert.
Entertainment includes performances by a jazz band, carollers (U-Connect members), children's crafts and activities, a family winter photo booth and gifts for each family to take home.
The dinner is free of charge to the community and takes place from 6-8 p.m. For more information, contact 604-271-7600, or visit www.rysa.bc.ca. To learn more about Clix Magazine, visit www.clixmag.ca.
