On May 24, 2026, cast members from Branches Between Generations and their families gathered at The Berwick in Parksville for a Season 1 finale screening and celebration.

From 2:00 to 2:30pm, guests mingled, reconnected, and met each other’s families before settling in for a 45‑minute screening at 3:00pm, wrapping the afternoon before 4:00pm.

Recorded at Podio Studio on Memorial Ave and supported by TELUS STORYHIVE, Branches Between Generations pairs seniors (ages 55–95) with youth (ages 12–17) for honest conversations about technology, relationships, history, careers, and what truly stands the test of time in “Canada’s retirement capital.”

Season 1 features eight episodes airing on TELUS Optik TV, showcasing Parksville‑area seniors and students as they share stories, compare life experiences, and find common ground across generations.

The project team includes Project Lead & Producer Clinton Nellist, Director of Photography Siska Gremmelprez, Podio Studio founder and series originator Mark Beuerman, and Teacher & Executive Producer Joy Castro Daniel. With generous support from local sponsors such as Berwick Parksville and Society of Organized Services.
