What:
Parents or caregivers of babies, toddlers or preschool aged children are invited to a Mad River Fish Hatchery outing on Monday, March 15th from 11:00 am-12:00 pm in Blue Lake. Directions: Take Hwy. 299 to Blue Lake exit, turn right onto Chartin Rd., left onto Railroad Ave., right onto Hatchery Road. The Fish Hatchery is located at 1660 Hatchery Road.
Let your “small fry” come and check out some of our local salmon at the hatchery and have fun feeding the fish (bring change for fish food.) We will have a picnic lunch afterward if the weather is nice.
Sponsoring this event is North Coast Parents (NCP), a local grassroots organization that was created 20 years ago to serve as a support group for parents of babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children. NCP offers activities, small play groups, field trips, and meetings in safe, nurturing environments that provide socialization for young children and their parents. Also offered is a babysitting co-op, parents’ night out events and meals to new parents. A monthly newsletter listing NCP activities and family-oriented community events is sent to members. Annual membership is $35 and scholarships are available. For more information on NCP, please call 444-3627 or look at our website for our current activities schedule at www.northcoastparents.org.
