Dear Parents/Caregivers 

To keep up to date regarding activities in the Slocan Valley for Early Childhood an E-bulletin is hosted by the Slocan Valley Early Childhood Community Advisory Council (SVECCAC), a voluntary group of service providers, educators, and parents focused on giving children their best start in life. The E-bulletins are intended to keep families with young children informed of opportunities and activities in the valley available to them. Contact for having yourself added to the E-bulletin valleyconnection@gmail.com
