ssatlantic_1The SS Atlantic Heritage Society is holding its Annual Meeting on Monday August 23 at 7:00 p.m. at the Museum and Shop in Terence Bay- beside St. Paul's Anglican Church. Just follow the signs!

If you have never been there, this is a time for you to come and visit! We have an interesting museum recording the story of the wreck in 1873 with artifacts from the ship, and we sell local crafts,books etc.

There is also a lovely board walk down by the river. More folks are needed to keep this society and its activities going- but don't worry we won't pounce on you to do anything unless you express a real interest! Come and check us out and hear what's been happening and plans for the future.

The wreck of the SS Atlantic is a very important part of local history which has rippled around the world- survivors' descendants, victims' relatives, the Captain's descendants, descendants of the local people who went to the rescue, divers....etc etc. You might be surprised! A heritage to guard!

jessica_mDid you know that reality TV existed right here in our community? It definitely did this week at PRCC as our theme was “Reality and Game Show Week”. Our specialty camp this week was Drama Camp where the participants became young actors and actresses in only one week!
- by Jessica Morrisey

Our Summertime Adventure Camp enjoyed participating in all sorts of different reality and game show type activities. We started our week off with a game of “Are You Smarter Than A Camp Counsellor” where the counsellors won by one question! On Wednesday the group was divided into teams and enjoyed the competition of Survivor. Thursday our campers showed off their talent in our very own PRCC Got Talent event where the talent ranged from dancing and singing to drumming and miming. Finally on Friday the campers were set out to complete an “Amazing Race” around PRCC where the teams of 2 completed various tasks; the fastest group being the winner.

This week My Pals and Me Preschool did various themes all week where they made all sorts of different crafts and played different kinds of games. The campers enjoyed watching movies on the rainy days and enjoyed, as always, free time in the gymnasium playing with all the toys and balls.

Drama camp this week transformed our campers from children to actors and actresses. The camp enjoyed different sorts of games and worked very hard to put their own twist on the classic story of Cinderella. At the end of the week on Friday afternoon the parents were asked to join them for the presentation of their play!

The centre continues to see many room rentals and fitness centre use by all of its many members. To inquirer about our room rentals and/or fitness centre memberships don’t hesitate to contact the front desk!

    jessica_mPRCC Weekly – July 26th - 30th This week the PRCC day camps certainly made a splash on the centre as the theme this week was “Water Week”. Also, this week our specialty camp danced their way through the week with our amazing “Just Gotta Dance” day camp program.
    - Jessica Morrissey

    This week our Summertime Adventure Camp and My Pals and Me Camp took the plunge into a wet and wild week with activities including water balloon tosses, various games involving sponges filled with water and water themed crafts. The preschool campers enjoyed playing on an inflatable water slide that some parents were very generous to set up for a day for them and both camps enjoyed watching a water related movie on those days when it was just a little to wet outside.

    Our specialty camp this week was our Just Gotta Dance camp. These campers enjoyed learning a structured dance routine designed by our dance instructor. They also had the opportunity to create their own routines in small groups. On Friday they had the chance to show off these routines to the their parents in a mini dance recital held at the end of class.

    I had the pleasure of meeting with a group of seniors this week as well. All those seniors involved in the area's Seniors Network were invited to join me for a meeting regarding senior programing at PRCC and we finished the day off by having a tour of the facility. There was a great response for the seniors as many attended and gave lots of input. I want to send out a great thanks to those who attended!

    Finally just a reminder that we are still registering for day camps, preschool and specialty camps. Without your children participation we wouldn't have been able to make these camps such a great success ! Take a look at our list of programs being offered for the rest of the summer below and be sure to keep a close eye for our upcoming fall programing to be released soon!
