Fun End-Of-Summer Activities For The Family!
Get busy enjoying the last of summer by having tons of fun! If you need some inspiration, here are a couple of ideas:
Go to the PNE!
The PNE has lots of activities for the whole family, including Playland rides and Summer Night Concerts (featuring Phillip Phillips, Joan Jett, Gipsy Kings, Trooper, Boyz II Men, The Pointer Sisters, and more). This year there’s also a Game of Thrones exhibition and an internet cat video festival. Throw in some mini donuts, a visit to the PNE Prize Home and you’re set!
Visit the Food Cart Fest
Treat yourself to a meal at Food Cart Fest, happening every Saturday in Holland Park (Surrey) and every Sunday in Olympic Village (Vancouver). Admission is free if you’re a Vancity or Car2go member, or with a non-perishable food donation to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank. These events also feature community markets, live music & DJs, craft food vendors, kids’ activities, ping pong, urban gardening and more.
Settle in for an afternoon at a beach (or lake)
Check out VanCity Buzz’s list of the best Vancouver beaches. While you’re there, go for a swim, rent a kayak or stand-up paddle board and enjoy the gorgeous scenery. Looking for something a little closer to home? There are lots of options in the Fraser Valley too! Cultus Lake, White Pines Beach, Harrison Hot Springs, Chilliwack Lake – to name a few.
The options are limitless for soaking up the sun and getting outside before September starts! It’s a great time to get your house on the market too. Ready to sell? Let us know! Contact us to get the ball rolling on your home sale today.
