Coast Mountain College

Come join us this Friday (August 21) for a fun evening of pizza, games, college info and swimming! If you’re a high school student in Prince Rupert and curious about what’s next after graduation (or have absolutely no idea yet), hang out with us and ask questions about our programs and available supports. See you there!

This Friday, August 21st, we’re bringing together 𝐩𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐚, 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬, 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐮𝐧 for a special Fun Friday!

We’re teaming up with Coast Mountain College for an evening that starts with getting your brain working… and ends with getting in the pool!

📍 𝟔 𝐏𝐌 – 𝐏𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐋𝐨𝐛𝐛𝐲
Coast Mountain College will be joining us with pizza and some fun, fast-paced board games. High school students will also have a chance to ask questions about programs and opportunities they can explore at the college while they’re still in high school. Whether you know exactly what you want to do or have absolutely no idea yet, come ask away!

🏊 𝟕 𝐏𝐌 – 𝐏𝐨𝐨𝐥
Once the games are done, it’s time to trade the game board for the pool and take the plunge!

And there’s an extra reason to join us: this is our last Fun Friday swim before the pool closes for annual maintenance on August 24th. So if you’ve been meaning to come out, this is your sign!
