June SLBA Update
Written by Roy Davies Friday, 08 July 2011 00:31
Attention ALL Business:
As mentioned in previous reports, the SLBA is working on a reprint of the Shawnigan Lake map. Over the past two years almost 10,000 maps have been distributed to both locals and tourists in Shawnigan Lake. With the number of remaining maps dwindling and the demand growing, not to mention the new roads and subdivisions in the area increasing, it is time for an update.
In addition to the map, the SLBA is working with the South Cowichan Rotary to provide a tourist information sign at Cairns Park (across from the fire hall on Shawnigan-Mill Bay Road). This sign will not only provide a street map of Shawnigan and local information but also display ads for local merchants.
With the collaborative efforts of the SLBA board, we are working to provide our members an opportunity for advertising at a very reasonable rate. In addition, we would like to extend this opportunity to non-members. Therefore any business wishing to take advantage of both the Cairns Park sign and the Shawnigan Lake map will receive their 2011/12 membership at no charge.
The cost for advertising in the map will be $150 plus the $65 SLBA membership, and the sign will also be $150 with the $65 SLBA membership. For both sign and map the total cost will be $300 which will include the SLBA membership, for a savings of $65.
Any business interested in taking advantage of this unique opportunity, please contact

by July 15th. Space is limited, so don’t delay.
Finally, Mark your calendars, Aug 20th for an SLBA / Camp Pringle Family Picnic. More information in future reports.
