In celebration of Welcome Week here in Abbotsford, we're excited to be hosting a Welcome Day Picnic for newcomer youth and their families! From 1:30-3:30PM on Sep. 20 at Mill Lake Park Picnic Shelter (Bevan Ave entrance), newcomer youth and local youth can bring their families along to enjoy a wonderful picnic with hotdogs (including halal and veggie options), fruit, veggies, Banter ice cream, McDonald's lemonade, and cookies from Pastry Portal.
Our free, family-friendly event will bring together newcomers and long-time residents of Abbotsford to share food, play games, and connect through conversation and cultural exchange.
Special thanks to our amazing title sponsor the Doane Grant Thornton Foundation for their wonderful support.
Thank you as well to our incredible supporting event sponsors Archway Community Services, DME McDonalds, Pastry Portal, Replay Board Shop and Banter Ice Cream.
