Nanaimo Holiday Mixer & Farewell to Dawn

Celebrate the season. Honour 25 years of service.

VICA’s Nanaimo Holiday Mix & Mingle returns, and this year comes with a very special milestone. We’re not only gathering to spread holiday cheer, but also to celebrate and thank Dawn, who is retiring after 25 years of incredible dedication to VICA and our members.

Over the years, Dawn has built meaningful connections across our community, making a lasting impact on countless members and colleagues. This event is your chance to reconnect, share stories, and raise a toast to Dawn’s legacy as VICA’s longest-serving team member.

Come enjoy festive refreshments, networking with peers, and a heartfelt send-off to someone who has helped shape our association for a quarter century.

Date: Wednesday, December 17
Time: 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Location: Nanaimo Golf Club, 2800 Highland Blvd, Nanaimo, BC V9S 3N8

Light refreshments will be served.

VICA Holiday Toy Drive

Helping Bring Joy to Children Across Vancouver Island.

The holiday season is a time for giving, and at VICA, we’re proud to continue our tradition of supporting children and families in need. Our annual Holiday Toy Drive is now underway, and we invite you to join us in making spirits bright for local kids this December.

We’re collecting new, unwrapped toys at both our Victoria and Nanaimo offices until 4:00 PM on Tuesday, December 9. All donations will be distributed across Vancouver Island to help families who need a little extra support this holiday season.

No time to shop?
We’re happy to do it for you! You can make a cash donation, and we’ll purchase toys on your behalf to ensure every child receives something special.

Thank you for helping us bring joy, comfort, and holiday magic to children in our communities.
