Whether it’s on the water or solid ground, the Nanaimo Wave Babes dragonboat team always makes a splash in the fight against breast cancer.
The team, formed in 2006, hosts its sixth annual plant sale May 5 at Nanaimo Fire rescue’s training centre on Labieux Road, hoping to add to the $75,000 it has raised to date for the Nanaimo and District Hospital Foundation.
The sale runs 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and features 1,500 perennials at a good price for a great cause.
The event also includes scrap metal and bottle drives, a book sale, children’s activities and a draw for a bicycle.
Information will be available on Nanaimo Community Gardens, Nanaimo Recycling Exchange, Regional Recycling Nanaimo (formerly Nanaimo Bottle Depot), Team Water Smart, community policing and fire safety.
