Sleigh the Night Away! 🛷
A Canopy Cares Holiday Fundraiser
Join us in partnership with Sable & Sage Co. for a Canopy Cares Holiday Fundraiser Workshop: Sleigh the Night Away! 🌲
Immerse yourself in an evening of community spirit featuring Christmas crafts, tunes, coffee, tea and festive treats. 🌟
What to Expect: Your ticket includes a 12 x 20 sleigh with four (4) design options including stain & paint colour as well as seasonal greenery. You will also receive coffee, tea and festive treats as well as a $20 donation receipt. This sleigh is light enough to hang on your front door and sturdy enough for indoor/outdoor decor!
Added Bonus: Your presence will directly support the Canopy Cares Support Fund! This fund was created in 2022 with the purpose of looking to strengthen the Canopy Community by expanding our resources and leveraging our expertise to identify and bridge gaps for those with intellectual disabilities, Autism and/or FASD. With this support, we aim to ensure equitable access to opportunities that empower and uplift the individuals and families we serve - helping them grow, learn, and develop the skills needed to enhance their quality of life.

Don’t miss the Family Fun Tattoo Pop-Up hosted by Mike’s Tattoos, and be sure to enter our 50/50 draw and raffle prizes for a chance to win something special!
✨ New Features for 2025! ✨
We’re always looking for ways to make the Carnival even more exciting, and this year we’ve added several new attractions! Try your luck at the Dunk Tank, explore the Touch a Race Car experience, or get creative at our Tie Dye Station — just bring your own item to dye and make it your own!
We’re also introducing a Henna & Glitter Glam Bar, perfect for adding a little sparkle to your day. And in recognition of FASD Awareness Month, our FASD program will be hosting a special area with button making, rock painting, and other hands-on activities. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about the important work this program does and how it supports our community.
