A popular event hosted by the Lake Trail Community Education Society (LTCES) is returning for its fourth year.
A free Repair Cafe will be hosted at Lake Trail School in Courtenay on November 15 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Executive Director of LTCES Anna Rambow said the event will feature new additions, so there’s something for everyone.
“We started with just a repair cafe and have now added a clothing swap and new this year, a garage sale.”
The Repair Cafe is free and will give residents the chance to get things such as wooden items, small appliances, and stuffed animals fixed by volunteer experts.
The clothing swap will include clothes from local thrift stores in the Comox Valley and donations from the public.
Anyone wanting to donate clothing, accessories, or shoes to the swap can bring them the day of the event, with leftover clothing being picked up by local non-profit Sunday Service at the end of the day.
A garage sale table costs $20 per table or free for youth and can range from records to sports equipment to art being sold.
