LFN Youth Centre Tour

As many of you know, we have changed locations for the Youth Centre to #10 Valley View. I have been

trying to get ideas from parents and youth about what would be useful and entertaining for the youth.

On August 2nd at 10 am , I will be at the Youth Centre for parents and youth to come and walk

around and get visual ideas of what could be placed in the building.

Bake Sale—August 24 at the Office

We will be baking on August 22nd and 23rd during the day at the Youth Centre. Also, the youth would

like to raffle off a scratch and win ticket board which is made up of various scratch and win tickets on

both sides of a board. The entire board will be raffled off.

Youth Night

The start time for youth night is changed from 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm. This is a result of the trucks coming

in and out until about 4 pm each day. If you are going to send your children to youth night, it would be

best to drive them or walk with them to the band office.
