Things have been so busy with our events that we haven't had the chance to talk about one of the other initiatives we're working on!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
In April, we were looking for new ways to be creative, and we were also wanting to support the local makers we had built relationships with through @christmasathycroft and beyond.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And that's where @lovevancitygiftboxes was born. Not only do we support some of my FAVE local small businesses, but we also pay it forward by donating a portion of the proceeds from each box to a different cause each quarter.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What started as more of an occasion gifting service grew into a natural complement to what we already do here at Clearwater. Think virtual event boxes, wedding welcome gifts, bridal party gifts, and so much more!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
We took a couple months off, but we are BACK and gearing up for what's going to be a crazy holiday season!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Check out the link in bio to get the inside scoop 🎁⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Have a favourite local maker? Let me know! Always on the look out for more amazing businesses we can add to the roster!⁠⠀

As we get set to open @christmasathycroft for pick

As we get set to open @christmasathycroft for pick-ups tomorrow, taking a moment to express gratitude to these two: Hycroft GM and our Event Chair.⁠
⁠
In a year so full of uncertainty, they embraced everything with so much openness, grace and adaptability. While this year's event will look nothing like normal, I'm proud that we're still able to move forward with some festivities. And hopefully these new components of the event will be here for a long time to come.⁠
⁠
PS. Don't mind our tired faces. This was taken at the end of the event last year 😴⁠

It's National Philanthropy Day, so I have to give

It's National Philanthropy Day, so I have to give a little shoutout to the event currently taking up our time - Christmas at Hycroft.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Christmas at Hycroft is Vancouver's longest running holiday event, going into its 48th year now! ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
When COVID hit, there was a naturally a lot of uncertainty around what we could do this year. But this event is the signature fundraiser for HHPF (the charitable arm of the University Women's Club), so we knew we had to do SOMETHING.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So this year @christmasathycroft goes virtual! We have an online store filled with festive decor, curated boxed gift collections, and the Hycroft kitchen comin' in clutch with takeaway meals. Oh, and an EPIC silent auction filled with some prizes I wish I could get my hands on!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The best part: all money raised goes towards preserving and maintaining the beautiful property that is Hycroft.⁠⠀

There are some new faces around here so I thought

There are some new faces around here so I thought I would do a quick Friday introduction!⁠ Hi, I'm Natasha 👋🏼 and I've been running Clearwater for 4 years now (where does the time go?!)⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I've been planning events now for 15 years 😱 When I started back in high school, I truly had no idea that I would fall in love with this job like I have, and what a ride it has been!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
A few fun facts about me:⁠⠀
1️⃣ I've shaved my head to fundraise $$$ for the Canadian Cancer Society 5 times now! The first time I did it, I was scared sh*tless; I ended up running laps around the event track to calm the nerves. By the 2nd time, I just found the process SO incredibly liberating! So much so, I would rock a permanent bald head if I could!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
2️⃣ Since shaving my head, I've been affectionately nicknamed Hedgehog 🦔 Blame it on the spikey Asian afaro! Don't get on my bad side or I can be a little prickly 😂⁠⠀
⁠⠀
3️⃣ Coffee and I go together like cookies and cream. I drink at least 3 BIG cups a day, and function at my best when I'm all hopped up on caffeine.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Okay, your turn now! Don't be shy, say 👋🏼
