2015 OFFICIAL TRAVEL GUIDE
VANCOUVER ISLAND • BRITISH COLUMBIA
ADVENTURE
PROUD COMMUNITY PARTNERS Since moving to the Alberni Valley, we have been amazed by the generosity of the people who live here and take great pride in calling the Alberni Valley home. We instantly fell in love with both the valley and the people who reside here and feel we have a responsibility as business owners to help support the Alberni Valley. Since 2013 you have raised over $65,000 for these three great local charities. In 2015 we are committed to continuing to give back to the community that has been so great to us and our staff. By purchasing your next new or pre owned vehicle from Van Isle Ford or Pacific Chevrolet $50 from every sale will be donated to your choice of one of the three charities below. We look forward to continuing to earn your business in 2015. – Will and Chelsey Pulford
Alberni Valley Rescue Squad Alberni Valley Rescue Squad members provide wilderness search and rescue assistance to residents and visitors of the Alberni Valley and surrounding area. In service for over 50 years, this volunteer organization is funded entirely by donations and the efforts of its volunteers. The dedicated members of the Alberni Valley Rescue Squad respond to wilderness emergencies in the mountains, forests, rivers and lakes of the region and has specialized rope rescue, swift water rescue, tracking and flat ice rescue teams in addition to its main ground search and rescue team. The group responds to calls for assistance (at the request of the RCMP) at any time of the day or night, in all weather conditions, 365 days of the year.
Alberni Charity Golf Classic In 2015 the Alberni Charity Golf Classic will be holding its 22nd annual event. In the first 21 years the event has raised over $565,800.00. Both local charities and Children’s Hospital are the recipients each year. The success of this event has helped many charities survive and their ability to help many people in need.
