The Bayfield Optimist Club is also hosting a Family Day lunch and activities at the Bayfield Community Centre from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Families can enjoy lunch, Lego building, and other activities. Skating will follow from 1 to 3 p.m. More details are available on the Bayfield Optimist Facebook page.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, the Bayfield River Valley Trails Association is inviting families to take part in a Family Day hike at the Varna Nature Trails. The hike will take place from 1 to 2 p.m. at the trails located on Mill Road.
