Coquitlam's Glen Pine Pavilion, a recreation facility for people 50 and older, offers a variety of entertaining and educational programs. Two coming up soon are:
Glen Pine Live Presents Mixed Bag Band: Join in for some sing-a-longs and an after-dinner dance on June 24 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Dinner will be served between 6 and p.m. and a cash bar will run all night. Cost is $18 per person and parking is available in the city staff parking lot on Burlington Drive.
Protect Yourself from Investment Fraud, ID Theft and Scams: In this seminar, participants will join Linda Milani, senior investigator from the BC Securities Commission, and Simone Lis, vice-president with the Better Business Bureau, at Glen Pine on July 6 from 10 a.m. to noon. Many British Columbians have lost their life savings to risky or dangerous investments. If you encounter a sales pitch that sounds too good to be true, stop - it's a red flag that the investment might be a scam. Sometimes the best investment you can make is the one you don't make. Admission is free. Light refreshments will be served.
To register for either program, call 604-927-6940. Glen Pine Pavilion is located at 1200 Glen Pine Crt.
