Won’t you be my neighbour?
Have a yen to jump in a bouncy castle, think about a rainbow on your forehead would look cool, how about throwing a ball and watching the minister get all wet…have we got something for you.
But before anything can happen, we need several volunteers to aid in organizing a neighbourhood family and friends fun day. The day will be happening on a Saturday in August 2019 outside//inside WPUC.
It would be fabulous if you had a little time and a few ideas to make this happen. If you are interested, please leave a message in the office.
