Fun Fest: Let’s CONNECT! – a FREE local community event this month!

– Moncton, NB Aug. 9, 2021 – The YMCA Community Action Network’s Summer Cohort is presenting Fun Fest: Let’s CONNECT! – a FREE local community event.

“The event aims to encourage the public to socialize and have fun after a period of time where connection wasn’t encouraged,” says Miko Keanu, Marketing Manager of the project. “We hope to educate about local issues, and share the beauty of multiculturalism and diversity that our city has.”

Fun Fest: Let’s CONNECT! will be held Aug. 21 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the YMCA North End location (70 Twin Oaks Drive). Admission is free.

Event organizer’s will also be collecting used cell phones with chargers for Ensemble at the main entrance of the YMCA.

Fun Fest: Let’s CONNECT! will have free games and activities, as well as live entertainment that is open to all. Local vendors will have a section to sell their own goods like jewelry, food, and crafts.

“There will be face-painting, and of course, a bounce house,” said Keanu. “We will be giving out free popcorn and cotton candy while supplies last.”

Fun Fest: Let’s CONNECT! is the perfect event for you, your family, and peers to have fun and connect before summer ends.

We hope to see you there!
