Are you a parent wondering what to do with the kids for New Years Eve? The Kerry Wood Nature Centre is running a sleepover program for children, 7–10 years-old. Participants will explore the Sanctuary at night, follow animal tracks through the woods, play games, eat snacks and do a craft. We’ll have the best view in town as we ring in the New Year on the East Lake viewing deck then lead a sparkler parade back to the Nature Centre. We’ll put a movie on the big screen in the theatre as kids roll out their sleeping bags. Nature Centre interpreters will provide a full evening of care and nature-based entertainment. Parents can drop their kids off at 6 p.m. and pick them up at 9 a.m.; after the kids have a breakfast of fruit, muffins and juice. The cost for this unique evening is $55 per child. Siblings are welcome at $100 per pair of kids. To register call 403-346-2010.
