March Break is great for kids no matter where they’re from (who doesn’t love a week off from school?), but it’s worthwhile to realize what fun you can have without travelling far. As a resident, as well as an employee, of South Huron, I checked out what the municipality had to offer for March Break activities.
This particular day was the South Huron Day Camp. Kids aged six years and up enjoyed a full day of activities at the South Huron Recreation Centre in Exeter. Activities included bingo, a yummy pizza lunch, ice skating, snacks, crafts, and games. The camp was run by Maggie Miller, who was happy with the turnout and said bingo was a hit. A number of community groups and businesses including the Exeter Legion Ladies Auxiliary, Hansen’s Your Independent Grocer, Exeter Lions Club, and New Orleans Pizza made donations, which helped make this event possible.
Friendly faces at the Recreation Centre in Exeter. Darcey Cook, Program & Events Assistant, and Jo-Anne Fields, Manager of Community Services for the Municipality of South Huron.
A brochure listing all of the March Break events in South Huron is available online. There’s free public skating at the Recreation Centre in Exeter today (Friday) from noon to 2:30 p.m., and a Fun Day planned in Crediton from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with crafts, lunch, snacks and games for the kids. This event is hosted by the Crediton Optimist Club and is $10 per child.
For questions about recreation programs in South Huron, give Darcey or Jo-Anne a call at the Recreation Centre at (519) 235-2833. Information about programs and events are also posted on South Huron’s website, Facebook & Twitter pages.
