Greenways Land Trust to celebrate 30th anniversary

Greenways Land Trust said it will be celebrating its 30th anniversary on Nov. 17, offering guests an evening of dinner, trivia, a guest talk and a fundraiser.

The organization said guest speaker Briony Penn will discuss her upcoming book, The Seabird Trials, at the event. Penn is an award-winning writer of creative non-fiction.

“She uses words, art and humour to connect people to the other voices of the Salish Sea and the natural world,” said a news release from the organization.

The evening will feature a 50/50 draw and prize raffle, with a four-hour whale watching tour and a scuba diving tour on the line, among other prizes.

50/50 and raffle tickets can be purchased in person at Greenways office, located 1195-C Fir Street in Campbell River on Nov. 10, Nov. 12 and Nov. 16 from 1-4 p.m.

The organization said proceeds from the draws will support Greenways’ fundraising goals for 2026.

Tickets to the event are $50 for regular guests, and $40 for Greenways donors, members and volunteers.

The event runs from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Campbell River Eagles Hall.
