Pop Up Play Kickoff 2019

Rain couldn’t stop many fun-loving families from coming out to the playground for the Pop Up Play event on Wednesday, July 3. The Strathcona Nursery School and Strathcona Community League sponsored a kickoff party for the Pop Up Play summer program held at the Hall’s playground. Despite a drizzly first half hour before the sun broke heartily through the clouds, over 40 people dropped by to participate in Pop Up Play games hosted by the City of Edmonton staff, savor cold refreshing treats, and enjoy friendly conversations. Children also had the opportunity to have their faces painted with stunning designs which was offered by talented Emily Lan with Strathcona Nursery School. Summer fun at the park is off to a fantastic start!

City of Edmonton’s Green Shack is offering a Pop Up Play program for children at the Strathcona Community Hall’s playground on Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:30-6pm running from July 3 to August 22.  The bathrooms inside the Hall are available during the program until 5pm.
