Yet Another Great New Westminster Festival

I recently read that New Westminster is fast becoming the "City of Festivals." Well we have another one to add to our repertoire.

A committee of involved residents in the West End are putting on New Westminster's latest festival, Summerfest in Grimston Park, this Saturday, July 17th. The event will apparently be a family-friendly evening of play and live music. It kicks off at 4pm with the opening of a mini-Farmer's Market. Along with some of the regular Farmer's Market food options there will also be pizza from Papa Dave's Pizza and coffee by donation from the Village Coffee Lounge.

Families will also have an opportunity to explore the newly completed playground. The evening goes late as there will be a fantastic outdoor screening of E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial. Be sure to bring your picnic blankets.

For more information check out the Tenth to the Fraser's website.

What a great addition to the number of community/neighborhood based festivals and celebrations.
This sounds like it is an ambitious undertaking, and also that the organizers and the community are up for the challenge.
Here's to great weather, great participation and a great event.
