The free Second Annual Welcome Baby party for new parents and parents-to-be is happening at the Creekside Seniors Activity Centre, 501 Cedar Ave., on April 21 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The event is hosted by Success by 6 in partnership with Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre (CFEC) and Child Care Resource & Referral (CCRR), says CCRR consultant, Erica Henderson.

"We had over 100 people attend last year. The event is completely free, which includes a light lunch provided for by Valda's Pastries and Desserts."

Parents have the opportunity to meet other parents and learn about all the programs available in the community Henderson says, adding Simple Elegance Photography will be on hand providing free four- by six-inch photographs of the children attending.

"New this year is our baby clothing swap for children up to six years old, she explains, and there will be clothing, toys and maternity wear available for free.

"There are some beautiful items. We have an enormous selection, and we don't want to pack it up, so come and get it."

There will be numerous door prizes from playpens to baskets and a play station for toddlers and their siblings.

For more information, call Henderson or Sheila Glen at 250-395-5155.
