Warning: Serious Fun Ahead.

There may be bouncing.
There may be face paint.
There may be VERY important trucks that require VERY close inspection.
And there will almost certainly be kids who don’t want to go home.

Bring your little humans to Nanoose Place Community Day for:
• Bouncy slide madness
• Face painting transformations
• Sensory play and hands-on fun
• Touch-a-Truck for tiny truck fanatics
• Games, activities and general silliness

Parents, we haven’t forgotten about you. There’s live music, great food, classic cars, local makers and a Beer Garden. We’ve thought this through.
