Pender Medi Spa at Nowruz celebration in North Vancouver

On Sunday March 11th, 2012 Pender Medi Spa participated in North Vancouver’s Nowruz celebration for the Persian New Year at Mickey McDougall gym – and what a celebration it was! Live music, performances, face painting, delicious traditional food, and lots of treats. Yum! Nowruz is one of the oldest spring festivals, having been celebrated for over 3000 years, and we were very happy to be part of it.

Along with a number of other local businesses, we had a table set up with staff members Jenny and Sarah on hand to greet the masses. We thoroughly enjoyed meeting new people, and educating everyone on all the services we have to offer at Pender Medi Spa. We are looking forward to celebrating again next year!

Happy Nowruz!

Recap: A Walk To Remember

This past Sunday, Pender Medi Spa staff participated in the first annual Walk to
Remember for melanoma awareness. Sunny and breezy, it was a perfect day for the 5km
walk along the West Vancouver seawall. The event was organized by the Save Your
Skin foundation which promotes awareness and education of skin cancer, and provides
support for those affected by this condition.

Participants in the walk were treated to t-shirts, drinks, snacks, and a cool bracelet that
changes colour when exposed to UV light – an excellent reminder to apply sunscreen!
Our staff could be found at the registration tent, sporting Pender Medi Spaq
shirts while handing out sunscreen samples, and providing information on proper sun
protection. We also donated a raffle gift consisting of Jan Marini Sunless Tanner,
SwissTEC Global Protect SPF 30, and a complimentary microdermabrasion treatment.

The event was a lot of fun and we look forward to participating again next year. Check
