Together We Raised Over $11,500 for the Raise the Roof Campaign!
The Homecoming Gala was more than a fundraiser — it was a tribute to our roots, a celebration of community, and a reminder of what we can achieve when we come together. This cherished tradition continues to honour the legacy of our fishing families while helping to sustain and improve our beloved Community Hall — a place that has brought people together for generations.
Thank you, Pender Harbour, for showing once again what community truly means. Together, we’re keeping the spirit of “homecoming” alive — and ensuring our Hall continues to serve as the heart of it all.
The Homecoming Gala will make its exciting return in October 2027! As many in our community know, the Hall’s long-planned renovations begin in May 2026. Because major projects can evolve as work progresses, it isn’t possible to set a firm gala date for 2026. Rather than rush or offer anything less than the full Homecoming experience, we’re taking this extra year to ensure the Gala returns exactly as it should—strong, joyful, and worthy of our Harbour’s traditions. We can’t wait to celebrate together again in 2027!

The 2025 Homecoming Gala was a return to tradition to celebrate our local fishing boats homecoming at the end of the season. We invite you to watch one of the 2025 Gala highlights - a video tribute.
Honouring Our Roots – Pender Harbour’s Fishing Heritage
Our community was built on the strength, courage, and hard work of the fishing families who called these waters home. The boats, the stories, and the generations that followed remind us where we came from — and why community still matters so deeply today. This video is a tribute to them, and to the legacy that continues to shape Pender Harbour. ⚓
*This tribute draws from photos and stories we were able to access. A few images are non-local but chosen to reflect the spirit of our fishing past. We sincerely acknowledge that some boats & families may be missing. Every one of you remains an important part of the Harbour’s history and heart. Efforts were made to receive approval for photos taken from on line. Acknowledgement was on signage at the Gala Event.
