…is all about what 6 feet REALLY looks like! How far apart is 6 feet? What does a 6-foot distance look like in real life? Thanks for this video, Emily! Let’s all stay healthy and safe, by keeping at least 2m (6 feet) apart!
Remember Together, Apart…
Hey everyone, as we observe Remembrance Day, let’s keep each other safe by staying apart. Consider watching ceremonies online, booking a time to visit the Okanagan Military Museum, or checking out more local information here:
You can visit the Legion website here to see other ways to support and observe Remembrance Day while keeping a safe social distance apart (at least 2m or 6 feet).
Have a Great Weekend!
Hey everyone, we wanted to say HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND to you all! Please remember to be safe and healthy while you are “doing your thing” — whether “your thing” is Halloween, Dia de Los Muertos, or something else entirely!
Don’t forget about the Spook-tacular Live-Stream happening tonight, or the Virtual Halloween Dance happening tomorrow!
No matter what you’re celebrating (safely) this weekend, send us a picture of how you “made it great” and we’ll post it next week!

Spook-tacular Live-Stream!
Hey everyone, this week’s social distancing reminder is an invitation to the Nelson Cares LIVE-STREAM SPOOKTACULAR happening next Friday night!
Hi folks,
In honour of Community Inclusion Month, we are going to try something different this Spook-tober…
We are going to have our most excellent DJ, Lucas, return for a live streaming Halloween music event on Friday October the 30th! The event will take place on zoom, and the log in is the same for any self-advocacy meeting (see poster below) Lucas will be sharing tunes while the rest of us can use the chat bar to converse and the video to show off our costumes and react together. Maybe folks will feel like dancing in their house or just listening is fine too.
Either way, please feel free to dress up, dance in your room, or have a little house party with your pod and enjoy the tunes together!
Hope to see you there, it begins at 6:00.
Matthew Wilson-Birks, Advisor, The Nelson Self-Advocacy Group (Click here to find us on Facebook), Nelson CARES Society

The internet has some great idea on how to keep busy while we spend time social distancing, like this one from Pinterest: Social Distance Activity Bingo! Challenge your family and friends to a game, talk about your progress and share your ideas as you all try to get BINGO first!
Or, if you and your family are up for a screen-free challenge, why not challenge each other (or your neighbors) to Screen Free Bingo?

We all work hard to keep ourselves and others safe, by staying at least 2m apart when possible. When it’s not possible to be 2m apart, we can choose to wear a mask or face covering – check out some more information here!
