Here's what's on in the Tri-Cities for May 8, 2024:
Spring shopping
Take a look at the vendors tables from eight high schools in School District 43 at the Spring Market, on from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Gleneagle Secondary (1195 Lansdowne Dr., Coquitlam). The participating schools are Centennial, Best, Gleneagle, Heritage Woods, Pinetree, Port Moody, Riverside and Terry Fox secondaries. Some vendors only accept cash. The goods have been made by students with disabilities who have been working with their education assistants to make candles, sprays, jams, dog biscuits, coasters, jewelry and home décor. Local and home-based vendors will also be at the market as they have a connection to a high school student with a disability.
