The City of Penticton is building off the momentum from last year for a fun-filled Family Day on Feb. 18.
After seeing 500 attendees in 2018, the free Skate with the Vees event returns to the South Okanagan Events Centre from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. A shinny with the Vees event will take place during the same time at the Memorial Arena.
New this year, the Penticton Community Centre is hosting a free Family Fun Zone in the gymnasium from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. After seeing 250 people attend last year’s free movie at the Cleland Community Theatre, this event returns from 2:30 to 4 p.m. with the movie to be announced at a later date.
Also new this year, the Penticton Community Centre will be hosting a Toonie Swim at the pool from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
IGA Penticton will host a barbecue by donation to benefit the Penticton Minor Hockey Association from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Last year’s Family Day events raised $1,350 for the association.
