What you can do with Jelly Beans

 

At the Midway Social Centre’s Craft Morning, we love creating something fun that everyone can enjoy together. This week we made Jelly Bean Topiaries for Easter! This simple project was a big hit — easy to make, and the finished topiaries turned out so colourful and pretty.

We have some wonderful things going on at the Centre! 

Mondays, you can come in and get help with any Computer, telephone or tablet issues with Barb form 9-1. If you are not having any problems and just want to know how to use an Application you can get help with that too! All it costs is a donation to the Centre.

Tuesday and Friday Mornings throughout April, Donna is in the Centre to help you with your taxes. $50/return with 20% going back to the Centre.

Every Second Tuesday is the Music Jam! Come and play or listen! All it costs is a donation to the Centre.

Thursday Mornings is Crafts and Coffee and 

Every Second Friday is Pool and Darts! 

Is there an event or course you would like to have in our community? From event planning to technology we have the skills and equipment. Any Questions? Come and talk to us at the centre about it and we can try to make it happen.  

AND the NEW APRIL CALENDAR

Spring is Coming!

Here is the Calendar for April! Don't forget - we will be making Jellybean Topiaries for Easter NEXT Thursday! There is some prep work that needs to be done ahead of time (pouring plaster into the pots around the trunks so the trees don't fall over) we would like people to let us know if they will be coming so we have enough prepared a head of time. We don"t want anyone to miss out on the fun!

Here is the Calendar for April! 

Jellybean Topiary Workshop

 

Pop Up Valentines for Valentines Day!

 Here are some of the Pop Up Valentine Cards the Thursday Morning Crafting people made:

It's the Month of LOVE!

 

We are going to be making Pop-Up Cards during Crafts on Thursday February 5 and 12 for Valentines day! If you would like to try this out we will help you with the details. We are asking for a toonie and we supply ALL the materials! 

Below is a video of how to make one of the cards 

Making these with others is a lot of fun!

Mondays we have been offering Tech Support for those who are having difficulties with their Telephones, Android Tablets and Windows PC/Laptops. We can also help those that need to attend a Zoom session for specialty appointments and we can arrange for help for any day of the week. We can also help with government or utility websites, filling out online forms, etc. 

Stop by and ask Barb if you need specific help on a specific day. 

Tech Support sessions on Mondays have become quite busy so come early or book a session. 

Pool and Darts! 

Wow! Has this ever taken off! We were a bit late in getting the coffee on this week, that won't happen again! 

If you have to wait for your turn, we have shoffle board and a number of board games! We have had a suggestion to add a Ping Pong table! 

Please Stop by, shoot a round and let up know if we should do this every week, if Ping Pong should be considered and volunteer to open up and manage a Friday so we can have it every week. 

Updated January 2026 Calendar!

 

Our Essential Digital Skills course, which we ran for 6 Wednesdays in October-November, were extremely popular. If you would be interested in attending a reboot this spring, please contact the Centre and let us know! All we need is 6 -8 interested people. 

Prior to Christmas, at the last 2 Thursday Morning Crafts Cafes we made Candy Cane Reindeer and the next week we painted Christmas Candles. In February, at the first 2 Crafty Thursdays we will be making Pop-Up Valentine Cards!
