Hospital Gift Shop Finally Grows
Saanichton, BC – A project to upgrade the hospital’s gift shop that has been talked about by the Saanich Peninsula Hospital Auxiliary (SPHA) for close to 30 years has finally been realized.
A grand opening was held last Wednesday (June 26) for the new, almost doubled in size gift shop which had been under construction since winter.
“By the end of February we were looking good on timing and everything was coming together but we were lacking in our funds to continue the project,” explained Linda Padget, who is the gift shop convenor who spearheaded the project.
