(In-person event was CANCELLED due to Provincial Code Orange Restrictions)
We hope you were able to take a Walk in the Park on Wed, Oct 06th!
Even though we couldn’t meet in person, we hope you had a chance to visit your local green space and get outside on a beautiful fall day! We want everyone to reap the benefits of being outside and connecting to a greenspace. Connect with us and tell us where you enjoyed your day outdoors in your local park or green space!
We were able to connect with a few of the presenters that we had lined up for the Oct 06th event and they had some great information to share with us (THANK YOU!):
See more information below on how and where you can enjoy the benefits of connecting to your local green space.
