Programs
If you're looking for fun, interactive programs for your kids to do after school, or over summer and winter breaks, Cathy offers play-based programs at Trout Lake and Douglas Park community centres.
Kids will get to expand their creativity and connection with nature through innovative programs that combine art, writing and out-in-nature exploration. Her programs are great for kids that are new to creative expression as well as those who have already tapped into their natural abilities.
