Thursday, May 4th, 2017
11:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Join the BC Forest Discovery Centre on Thursday May 4th and Friday May 5th at a special event celebrating 'Accessibility' between the hours of 11:00am and 4:00pm.


The two days are FREE for seniors, those with mobility issues or learning disabilities, and their caregivers. It is through the assistance of local grants that the BC Forest Discovery Centre has been able to improve wheelchair accessibility in many ways at the centre. They have recently installed a hydraulic wheelchair lift for the train, improved many of the boardwalks and have completely renovated the washrooms and front entrance.


Chris Gale, Manager of the BC Forest Discovery Centre adds, "it took us a little longer than we expected, but the last two projects we are pleased to be able to show off to the public."


The special two days include a FREE 'all day breakfast style buffet', entertainment, FREE train rides and lots of fun. A limited number of the public tickets will be available at the door with a discounted $5.00 admission, and a limited number public buffet tickets are also available for a fee of $5.00, with proceeds for both tickets going to assist with costs. Please contact the BC Forest Discovery Centre to reserve your place! www.bcforestdiscoverycentre.com
