About the Galiano Activity Centre Society
The Galiano Activity Centre Society (GACS) was founded in 1981. GACS is registered as a non-profit society in British Columbia, and is registered as a charitable organization with Revenue Canada.
GACS is responsible for managing community use of the Activity Centre located at the Galiano Community School, Galiano Island, British Columbia. The Activity Centre consists of a full-size gymnasium, meeting room, kitchen, and storage room.
GACS is funded by individual donors and by grants from the Galiano Parks & Recreation Commission, the Capital Regional District, Industry Canada's Community Access Program, and Human Resource Canada's Summer Career Placement Program.

Community Access to the Internet
Grants received from Industry Canada's Community Access Program (CAP) since 1995, together with in-kind support of the Galiano Community School, the Gulf Islands School District, and the Galiano Community Library have made it possible for Galiano residents and visitors to enjoy free access to the Internet at the Galiano CAP site located at the Galiano Community Library. Please click here for the current schedule for use of the access computers at this CAP site.
The funding support from Industry Canada and the in-kind support from the Galiano Community School and the Gulf Islands School District have also made it possible to provide free web hosting services to Galiano community groups.
