As well, we sell turkeys at Christmas time, tickets on local artwork, and various other smaller projects. In addition to fundraising, the Club provides a number of clients from the Vera Perlin Society and Special Olympics Newfoundland and Labrador with Christmas and Easter Hampers, Halloween and Christmas Dances, and the very popular Annual Bowling Tournament in April. The Canadian Progress Club has two goals: to provide our charities with financial support and to organize a variety of quality social events. Highlights
