The Kids in Nature Outdoor Learning Program is putting the fun in fundraiser.<\/p>\n
The program \u2013 which helps expose children to positive, natural environment-based growth experiences \u2013 is holding a special event to help purchase a geodome for its South Surrey home.<\/p>\n
Live music, dancing and forest-play experiences will all be part of the family-friendly evening, Friday, May 29, from 5 p.m. on, at the Kids in Nature Outdoor Learning Centre, 18518 24 Ave.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re raising funds to purchase and install a geodome: a year-round, all-weather outdoor structure that will allow us to expand programming for children and the wider community, regardless of the season,\u201d KIN\u2019s community relations director Marisa Crockett told Peace Arch News.<\/p>\n
The fundraiser will feature dancing to live music by long-established White Rock band Chic Machine (classic hits from yesterday to today), with guest entertainers and DJ sets throughout the evening, she said.<\/p>\n
Adding to the fun will be a community chili cook-off (guests can enjoy a variety of homemade chilis, and compete \u2013 dinner is included with an entry).<\/p>\n
There will also be forest-play experiences for children and families, raffles featuring donations from local businesses, temporary tattoos and a \u2018baby forest\u2019 plant sale (guests can take home their own small forest starter).<\/p>\n
And topping it off will be a dunk tank \u201cfor ultimate silly fun,\u201d Crockett said.<\/p>\n
KIN\u2019s private forested property (also a licensed preschool and daycare) is on 24 Avenue just past 184 Street, with signage at the entrance. <\/p>\n
On-site parking is available, and volunteers will guide guests upon arrival.<\/p>\n
