Enterprising Moms Network (EMN) Vancouver Chapter is hosting an informal networking event for mom-entrepreneurs, mom-entrepreneurs-to-be, moms, moms-to-be, and mom-supporters! Come meet local mom entrepreneurs, supporters and guests and discover the amazing business community right here in Vancouver, indulge in chocolate fondue, and go away on a sugar high.

Are you a knitter or crocheter who can whip up a hat in an evening? Then get your knit on this summer! You’ll be helping to raise awareness about the Period of PURPLE Crying and shaken baby syndrome.

With steep budget cuts diminishing educational and recreational programs for Vancouver’s kids, three Vancouver based entrepreneurs have partnered up to raise much needed funds for Champlain Heights Elementary School to help them buy a new playground. The fundraising event is a collaboration between Jump Gymnastics, Klik Photographic and Collage Collage, local businesses that deal directly with kids everyday.

It’s active, healthy and FUN! If your family is like many Canadian families you search for activities where everyone can participate. A healthy, meaningful, shared experience for Mom, Dad and the kids! If you have bikes here it is!

Vancouver has a reputation for environmental awareness, so it’s not surprising it’s the locale for summer camps full of building and racing mini solar powered cars, baking brownies in solar ovens, creating a mini eco-city using recycled materials, and planning social and environmental change projects.

While we often think of summer camps as a place for sports and outdoor play, Christianne’s Lyceum in Kitsilano provides an alternative where the focus is more on literature and visual art than kayaking or baseball.

Express yourself and make mini art on button pins or magnets. Artist Laura Bucci will show you some cool ideas using different materials and techniques such as paper collage, rubber stamping, and working with fabric. Your small compositions will make great professional and personalized gifts!
