Young People in Chase making a difference
Date: Jan 4, 2010
Entry: We have so many young people in Chase who are making a difference in their community and beyond. The Green Team at Haldane and Chase Secondary are workin hard to look after our environment with fundraising and eco conscious activities. Others are raising funds for Children's Hospital in memory of one of our young citizens who lost his life to cancer and supporting Children's hospital was his passion. Young people from Chase Secondary put on a Hallowwe'en party each year for the youngsters in the community. Still others collect food and clothes for ones in need. We are so lucky to have such wonderful young people in our community! There are so many opportunities for our young people to take part in theatre, dance, skating, skiing, curling, hockey because of the efforts of our wonderful volunteers. Thanks everyone for making Chase such a great place to live, work and play!

Our Arena.
Date: Jan 4, 2010
Entry: Because I've skated all my life, I love the fact that we can skate here in our Arena and watch our hockey team perform.
What we do need is new machinery for our rink and the prize money would be well spent here in our lovely community.

Best little town in BC
Date: Jan 3, 2010
Entry: I grew up in Chase, and was fortunate enough to have raised both my children there until they were 10 & 12. We all still call it "home" when we go there to visit my parents. Curling and hockey are HUGE up there in the winter months, as is golf & boating in the summer. We all hope to eventually end up back there as each of us retires.

Amazing Spirit in our Community!
Date: Dec 29, 2009
Entry: During December and really all year long the citizens of Chase and area display an amazing spirit of giving and helping others who are in need or just because they want to give back to their community. The local hamper committee had many dollars and much needed food donated so they could give Christmas hampers to everyone who applied. As well, students at Chase Secondary did a "coat drive" to collect coats to be donated to people in need and they collected 10 shopping carts full, thanks to the generosity of citizens of Chase and area. Throughout the year there are fundraising activities for such things as Breast Cancer Research, Gratitude Month to raise funds for Children's Hospital and if there is a need in our community the true spirit of giving shines through. Although we are a small community (2500) we have big hearts!
