"Pastimes in Past Times"

February 22, 2025
1:00 pm to 5:00 pm
at Cloverdale United Church

As part of HeritageBC's Heritage Week 2025, the Surrey Historical Society (SHS) has teamed up with the Cloverdale United Church (CUC) to host a dual event on February 22, 2025, from 1 pm to 5 pm at CUC.

The SHS will be highlighting games and activities that our ancestors enjoyed to relax after long days of work. There will be display boards, photos, and artifacts on display as well as a children’s play area where they can enjoy some games of the past. There will be adult and children’s trivia contests and a scavenger hunt for the little ones, with prizes. Refreshments will be served at “Tea Time”.

This event is free, though donations are gladly accepted. Everyone is welcome to join the fun!

The Cloverdale United Church is a Designated Heritage building in the heart of Cloverdale, built in 1950 (75 years ago). In the year 2025, we will also be commemorating the founding of The United Church of Canada 100 years ago in 1925, the founding of the Cloverdale United Church as a congregation (also in 1925, in conjunction with that national church union), as well as the establishment of Cloverdale United Church's two pre-United-Church predecessors, both of which had their beginnings 150 years ago in 1875!
