Community

We believe in supporting local and giving back

 Our family believes it is important to give back and get involved in our community. On this page you will find information about our participation and involvement in community events and initiatives! 

Hockey Day in Grand Valley 2023

Jeff and I attended hockey day again this year and were super impressed with the show of community support for our twisters! We watched the skills competition and I participated in the coaches game for the first time this year. We believe supporting minor hockey in our community is very important and we look forward to continuing to sponsor our twisters again next year!

Grand Valley Santa Claus Parade 2023

We were not yet open but decided to put a float in the parade to join in this wonderful community event to get everyone in the Christmas spirit! It was such a fun night and we got to see so many familiar faces in the crowd along main street. Jeff and I decided to dress up as elves and our costumes kept us nice and warm. We can't wait for next year!

Community Helpers Program - hosted by the Grand Valley Public Library - November 2023

 The Grand Valley Public Library runs programs on Friday mornings for young kids to get to interact with professionals within the community. We participated in this program with a dental theme, of course! We read some dental related stories including a classic Robert Munsch. We also sang songs and did a tooth craft which the kids got to take home. We practiced counting teeth on Mr. Dinosaur and doing his checkup!

2023 Masquerade on Main hosted by the BIA:

 Jeff and I were excited to participate in the Masquerade on Main this year! It was a beautiful day with so many kids out in creative costumes. Jeff and I dressed up as Mickey and Minnie mouse while Arthur was a cowboy!

Grand Valley Public Library- Coffee, Tea & Connection 

 This October we were happy to participate in one of the Friday afternoon coffee, tea and connection events. I had fun giving a talk about both our practice, as well as some oral health tips. We had a great discussion afterwards with many oral health questions! It was so nice to see some familiar faces, and meet some new ones as well!

Grand Valley Fall Fair 2023

This year we attended the Grand Valley Fall Fair! While this is not our first time at the fair, this was our first time having a table set up with our office. We enjoyed offering face painting for the kiddos in the community as well as a number of giveaways. After we were finished at our booth we got to enjoy the tractor pull, exhibits as well as some of the food from the local vendors! 

2023 Grand Valley Farmers Market:

This year we attended the Grand Valley Farmers market! We enjoyed shopping local and getting to know other local businesses and community groups. Here is Dr. Sam and her dog (Arthur) at the third market of the summer. We can't wait for the return of the market next year!
