Whistler’s Mature Action Community’s annual Christmas Dinner and Dance raised over $750 and collected two bins of non-perishables for the Whistler Food Bank. Held at the Whistler Racket Club Dec. 5, a few guests from the North Pole made a special appearance. Here’s Santa (Peter Shrimpton), Mrs. Claus (Rose Shrimpton) and Elves Kathy White and John Thornhill.

Whistler’s Mature Action Community (MAC) 55-plus group sold out its annual Christmas Dinner Dance on Dec. 5, and raised more than $750 along with two bins of non-perishable food items for the Whistler Food Bank. It may not have been a wintry night, but spirits were high and the Whistler Racket Club (WRC) staff made sure we had a wonderful evening with a lovely turkey buffet and dancing until the later hours of the evening.  

Thanks to the WRC for hosting us, and to the other community partners who have supported this event, and our other events throughout the year: Creekside Market, Fresh St. Market, Sewak’s Independent Grocer, Profile Ski and Snowboard Services, Coastal Culture Sports, Lifemark Physiotherapy, Tim Hortons, Kathy White Realtor, Blenz Coffee, Nesters Market, the Alpine Café, Our Lady of the Mountains Catholic Church and the Resort Municipality of Whistler.

MAC, a non-profit, volunteer-run organization, is committed to engaging and advocating for Whistler seniors, 55 and older, to ensure we can all age in the community we all love to call home. We welcome new members to register at whistlermac.org or email us at [email protected] to learn more about our fun social and educational events, community engagement and much more.
