The next three Park Parties are scheduled for August 7th at Neil Leatherdale Park, August 14th at Ralph Maybank Park and August 21st at Craigs Corner Playground.

The summer wraps up with a Foam Party Finale and BBQ on August 28th at Centennial Park. That event will include a meet and greet with Olds College Broncos athletes and the town mascot, Oliver.

The Park Parties are free to attend and open to all ages.
