News Release:
The Bower Place Community Association has received funding from the Government of Canada’s "New Horizons for Seniors" Program for a Bower Community Connections 60+ project called “Connect, Communicate, Unite, Educate" for Bower Community Seniors. The funds will be used to purchase computers and hire an instructor where seniors can learn and practice their technology and digital skills.
