Our 4th annual children’s Teddy Bear Picnic is coming up on August 1st from 1 pm to 7 pm at a new location- RCMP Centennial Park. This event brings in 300+ families with young children (0-7+) to enjoy a variety of activities. We use this event to not only provide a fun event for kids to attend, but to celebrate all the amazing early childhood services and resources that Edson and area offers.
This event is completely FREE! From the BBQ, balloon twisting and face painting to the petting zoo, all free!
We are also accepting Edson Foodbank donations as well.
Bring the little ones down to have some fun!
