The Grande Prairie Regional Sport Connection’s annual Try It Day is returning for its Fall session on September 14th.
Two Try It Days are hosted every year, once in the Winter and once in the Fall, and the wintertime session saw sports like skiing, curling, and other traditional winter activities being opened up for Grande Prairie youth to try a new sport they might not otherwise have the chance to do.
This fall, the GPRSC will be offering 24 different sports for local youth to try out, including a variety of martial arts, dance lessons, gymnastics, lacrosse, and ringette.
Grande Prairie Regional Sport Connection Executive Director Karna Germsheid says the annual Try It Day offerings are beloved by both the community and her organization alike.
“The community loves Try It Day as we do, it’s very close to our heart, we had hundreds of kids go through different sport organizations, and the sport organizations do such a bang-up job in receiving those kids and offering such great service in the community,” she says.
A full list of event offerings and additional information regarding venues is available on the GPRSC’s website.
