Adventure Picnic!

Monday we celebrated the summer and preschool programs of our area with the locals at the Beaver Valley Arena, which hosted our ADVENTURE PICNIC!

The event went very well, we had a variety of stations ripe with crafts, games and information for children and parents. We had a craft table and face painting table. A bouncy castle which was as usual very popular with the bunch!

We also had tables manned by different local organizations, including: the Columbia Basin Water Smart, Child Dental and Audiology, Sparks, Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL), CCRR and ATCO. 

 Here, Diana and Katie from the Columbia Basin Water Smart, are presenting to a group about where our local water sources are and where they come from and how we can preserve our water and not be "dragon drainers"!!

 

Here, Rebecca from ATCO Wood Products, presents to a group about trees and forestry and animal habitats! A great presentation that the kids really enjoyed!

Some good ol' fashioned parachuting in the parking lot.

Rhonda also was able to fit in some good ol' mother goose sing-a-long action for the kids, which was greatly appreciated by all! 

 And of course, our bouncy castle!!

... and more songs!!

A big thank you to all the people who attended this year! Also a big thanks to Beaver Valley Rec. for being such a big help! Thank you to all the groups and people involved in making the Picnic as fun as ever and I can tell ya now how excited we are at the library to get this event going for next year!!! ^_^
