The Sunshine Coast Rod and Gun Club is hosting their second annual Family Fun Day on Aug. 25 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Last year’s event was a great success and this year’s event is stacking up to be lots of fun. Everyone is welcome to participate in the family-friendly activities and displays for all ages. Entry fee for adults and kids over 12 is $5 per person; kids under 12 are free. All proceeds go to benefit the Sunshine Coast Food Bank.
Fun-filled activities include kids’ games, archery demonstrations, a historical arms display, fly casting demonstrations, tours of Chapman Creek Hatchery and kids’ fishing, a medieval sword fighting demonstration (with costumes), a chance to try your hand at throwing an axe, plus much more. Kids 10 and over can shoot supervised in the indoor range.
Come meet the BC Con-servation Service and the RCMP. WildSafeBC will teach you how to properly use bear spray.
The venue is located at 4384 Parkway Dr. (in Wilson Creek, off Field Road).
Lunch is free for kids under 12 and there will be draws for lots of great door and raffle prizes. More information can be found at www.sunshinecoastrodandgunclub.com
