Families First on New Year's Eve

Wendy Prieur is on the organizing committee.

She says the event now in its 21st year will be from 5pm-9pm on New Year’s Eve at Memorial Gardens, Thomson Park and the YMCA.

There’s a lot to do including a family skate, a button making station, an inflatable Bouncy Land, a Family Swim, Face Painting and Coloring contests.

A fireworks display wraps up the activities.

There’s no admission fee but you are encouraged to bring along a non-perishable food donation for the North Bay Food Bank.
