You're invited to the Norval Fall Open House on Oct. 22
Please join us for our annual Fall Open House at the Norval Outdoor School on Sunday, Oct. 22 from 1 to 3 p.m.
Stephen House will be open, with food and refreshments available. Fall at Norval is a time of beautiful colours and there will be lots of evidence of wildlife as most animals are preparing for winter. The idea is to open up Norval to UCC community members, and to offer a variety of outdoor activities such as visiting our apple orchard and making fresh apple cider, leading a fall hike with a scavenger hunt and a pumpkin painting station.
New activities this year:
Our community members can learn how to make small boats and then float them in the Credit River (or take them home to float on their own).
Families can also take part in printmaking and create their own Credit River fabric flag. This activity will be led by artists Dylan Gauthier, Kendra Sullivan, Freddie Ratkovsky and Brandon Latcham from the art collective Mare Liberum. The workshop is made possible by the Lind Art Fund.
Come join us for an outdoor getaway with friends and family. Dogs on a leash are welcome too!
