Overview:

Seymour Community Services Society is a non-profit organization providing community based services, recreation, education, community development and health promotion activities at the Parkgate Community Centre and other satellite locations. In 1999 the Society entered into a Partnership Agreement with the District of North Vancouver and the North Vancouver Recreation Commission, to oversee and manage the Parkgate Community Centre.  The Society identified the Internet as an integral part of their program delivery mandate. In June, 2002 the Seymour Community Services Society contracted eBusiness Applications to help them fulfill this mandate by developing www.MyParkgate.com .
