Guess what? September 22 is not just a regular day – it's World Car Free Day and we're inviting you to be part of a global celebration where we give car engines a break and discover cool ways to get around such as biking and walking. How amazing does that sound? Join us to explore the benefits of active transportation! Kids will create bicycle crafts made from sustainable materials and learn about bike safety. If you can, pedal or stroll your way to our Education Centre. Get ready to have a blast, learn tons of cool stuff, and be part of a global movement that's all about making our world cleaner and greener.
