Put on your party hats and help celebrate Coquitlam’s 125th birthday this weekend in Maillardville.
Hosted by Place Maillardville community centre, Family Fun Day is a sanctioned Coquitlam 125 event and runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. The event takes place mostly outdoors and will run rain or shine, so be prepared for the weather.
This free event for all ages will be filled with activities — sports, crafts, food and live entertainment — and feature a magic show as well as performances by the Cosmic Wink Band and Will Stroet and his Backyard Band.
And no birthday celebration would be complete without cake. At 10:45 a.m., there will be free cupcakes offered to the first 600 kids.
