Description
Summer is here and we’re excited to celebrate – Mommy Connections style!
Join us for a FREE community Picnic In The Park at Simonston Park (15 Simonston Boulevard, Markham) on Monday August 14th from 10:30am – 12:30pm.
We will be hosting these events across the country as a way for all of our amazing families to come back and reconnect with old friends you met through our programs. It’s also a chance for those of you who may not have experienced Mommy Connections to come and see what we’re all about! There will be toy testing, giveaways and some freebies too!
This FREE event is open to everyone, so bring a friend or two along! Kids of all ages are welcome, including those still in bellies. 😉
The only catch is that you – and your guests – need to RSVP. Please select the appropriate number of adults and children and click “add to cart”.
While there will be toy testing, some goodies and swag, please be sure to pack yourself some water, snacks, and a picnic blanket to be able to sit back and enjoy!
There is a parking lot on site (click here for location), but we expect that it might fill up quickly so there is also street parking on the surrounding streets. Please plan on potentially having to walk a bit, so strollers and baby carriers will be your best friend!
We look forward to seeing you on Monday August 14th for a fabulous morning of outdoor fun at Simonston Park!
Please note that Mommy Connections will be taking photos during this event. By registering, you agree that your photos may be shared via the Mommy Connections social media accounts, newsletter and website.
