We just learned that the building will be closed on Friday (Good Friday), so we'll move the party to the park outside. The weather is supposed to be great, and we were going to be outside for the afternoon anyways : )Changes:The party will start at 12pm instead of 10am, with a potluck lunch in the park facing Centre Communidée's building (CRCS St-Zotique) - see map here. Bring a blanket or sheet for sitting on, there are benches but no picnic tables. We will set up somewhere north of the swimming pool - it's not so big that we'll be hard to spot. We will probably stay a bit later, like until 4 or 5pm.We will skip the egg-painting altogether and have a treasure hunt and a few games after lunch.And because we aren't paying rent for that day, we won't charge the daily fee of $10 per family. So it's FREE : ) | ||
