Last Summer we held 4 playground resource events in Okotoks and High River. They were inspired by a Filipino immigrant mother and business owner who recognized the challenges that new immigrants face when settling in the community. FLIP organized a resource fair at the playground where children could play, and caregivers could learn about the resources in the community. We are excited to bring Playground Playdates for a second year!! Starting June 16th in High River and June 17th in Okotoks! Can't wait to see you there!
