Kootenay Family Place Neighbourhood House is hosting two community events this month.
On May 14, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., the community is invited to participate in Neighbourhood House Day at KFP's building at 767 11th Ave.
This event is part of B.C.-wide Neighbourhood House Week. It is a celebration of having such a great resource in Castlegar.
Attendees can participate in a collaborative craft, hear short speeches, have fun with face painting, listen to music and enjoy a free lunch.
On May 28, the annual Teddy Bear Picnic will take place at Kinsmen Park from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The event is a chance for parents of children aged zero to five to connect with local organizations to support your kids’ health and well-being. Children can bring their own stuffies and participate in games, crafts, face painting and other activities as well as explore some of Castlegar's fire vehicles.
