Family Services of Greater Vancouver Richmond Senior's Cooking Club
The Richmond Seniors Cooking Club is welcoming new participants. Learn fun, healthy recipes and meet new people at events twice a month. The club is open the experienced and inexperienced.
A cooking club is an innovative way for seniors to meet new people, get introduced to community resources, learn about cooking and nutrition, and of course eat delicious meals that can also be taken home.
Classes are held at the South Arm Community Centre on Tuesdays 10am - noon on May 25th, June 8th and June 22nd.
A donation of $3 to $4 per session is suggested. Please call Family Services of Greater Vancouver to sign up: 604-723-1172.
