What's happening in your community
The Central Wire community calendar is a place for non-profit organizations across central Newfoundland and Labrador to list upcoming events.
If you or your organization would like to make a listing, free of charge, please email the details to Krysta Carroll at krys28@ hotmail.com. Deadlines for submissions are at least two weeks in advance of the event.
Please keep in mind we still live in unpredictable times and items in this calendar are subject to change. It's best to check with the organization ahead of time to ensure events are still taking place.
