President's Message
Welcome to all the new members who have joined over the last few months. We know you will enjoy our club! Please come to our meetings, we welcome your input.
We are so appreciative of the efforts of previous leadership and volunteers who have kept this Centre going since 1975! We are blessed with a wonderful building in a prime location due in large part to the support of the Town of Comox over the past 45 years! It is indeed a “second home” for 800+ seniors in the Valley.
