Thanks to Jules and Shane Tweten of Stands Tall Creations Studio and Gallery in Artisan Square, Bowen Island Family Place now has new signage at the new location under the community daycare on Carter Road.
Dedicated to helping families thrive within our community since 1989, Family Place has worked hard to provide a safe and stimulating environment for children six years old and under. This drop-in program gives parents and caregivers a place to socialize with other families and support one another through the early years of development in a child's life. Valuable services offered at Family Place include a clothing and toy exchange, a resource lending library, health information and a monthly e-newsletter as well as postpartum support.
For those interested in attending Family Place's annual general meeting, it will be held on Tuesday, June 5, at 11 a.m. at Family Place, 650 Carter Road (lower level). The Family Place Father's Day Picnic and Baby Photo-shoot will be held on Sunday, June 17, at Crippen Park's Bowfest field. All babies born in 2011 are welcome to be photographed - an annual tradition you don't want to miss. For more information about Family Place and all it has to offer please visit their website at www.bowenislandfamilyplace.com.
