160 Montreal Street
10am-3pm


Ben Morton, a member of the Zen Centre, and his family are having a Garage Sale/Bake Sale on Saturday July 15th at 160 Montreal Street (10am-3pm). The Garage Sale is a fundraiser for the Victoria Zen Centre. Ben and his family are moving at the end of the month and have quite a bit of stuff to sell.
However, he's hoping that other members of the Zen Centre will be able to contribute something - even if it's just a cake! If you would like to help with the Sale by providing something to sell, please contact Ben either by email: webmaster@zenwest.ca or by phone: 382-7880
