This summer has turned out to be an extra-long one for the kids. If you want some help keeping the young people in your life active and engaged, tune into the Wells Gray Rocks event series to find a whole list of activities that will help make your summer one to remember.
The Wells Gray World Heritage Committee, Thompson Rivers University, BC Parks, North Thompson Arts Council and Wells Gray Park Information Center are teaming up to help celebrate Wells Gray Park’s 75th birthday by hosting talks, walks and arts and cultural events that highlight many of the special features of our valley and Wells Gray’s amazing geologic heritage.
The next event in the series is NATURE FOR KIDS. Bring the kids to the Upper Clearwater Community Hall on July 12 from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Many wonderful presenters are going to be there. Kids will learn about animal skulls, tracks, geocaching, early pioneers, and more! The famous sandwich table is back – complete with dried seaweed and garlic peas. By the end of the day kids will have started a nature journal and made a beautiful craft.Kids of all ages are welcome.
