So intense! k so here is the low down on what's been going on. So people have been evacuated to Thunder Bay , the recreation and culture department have been recruited to provide something for the youth to do. Youth Zone falls under that umbrella and have been taking point on this initiative! Thus is why there have been no updates in a while. Just a catch up our video game competition went off without a hitch and was pretty epic. As well our Sailing clinic was really fun and everything is on track. Hopefully we'll have pictures soon for you :).

Epic Skate Day was legendary! The Zone and West49 and 414 pulled off a epic event in which kids got to skate get prizes. The Zone was there to hand our free hot dogs and support our local stores and youth!

National "Go Skate Day"

So YZ, West 49 and 4fourteen are gonna be rocking international skate day on the 21st this month. We got a bunch of sick prizes and booth which will be set up as well as a free BBQ. I'm stoked for this because,  I've never skateboarded or really watched skateboarding. It's something new and fresh that is for the community and not just the boarders.  There will be contests and swag given out to participants. YZ will be reppin our new colours as well as  letting people know exactly what we are up to this summer!
