Neighbourhood nights
Beginning this Thursday, Coquitlam will host a series of Neighbourhood Nights at city parks, with activities, music and crafts at a different park each Thursday evening through Sept. 8.

Coquitlam neighbourhoods will be alive with the sound of children's voices and family activities every Thursday evening this summer.

Beginning Thursday, Jun 23, Neighbourhood Nights will be held every Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. in a different Coquitlam park.

The family fun nights will include kids’ games and sports, facepainting, arts and crafts, entertainment and light refreshments.

As part of the Coquitlam 125 anniversary celebrations, the city is expanding its Neighbourhood Nights program to 12 sites this year, up from nine in 2015 and five in 2014. In keeping with the Coquitlam 125 theme "Stories told, stories to be created," there will also be visits by historical characters and a video booth to record stories about Coquitlam at some of the parks.
