Silver Birch Family Retreat
Our annual retreat gives families the opportunity to carve out time in their busy lives to spend quality time with one another and network with other families. We host a speaker every year that has traveled a similar journey and can shed some light and inspiration. This year’s speaker are is Golfer and CNIB employee, Gerry Nelson. Please contact Alicia at Positively Parenting (306-236-4804) to reserve a cabin. Reservations are on a first come-first serve basis so don’t miss out and call right away. (preference give to wheelchair acessible families) There are 8 cabins with lots of bunk bed space but campers are welcome.
Family Skate
This is new!! Thanks to Greg Stang, we have the arena and Flying Dust booked for a family skate. This means bring everyone, your whole family and invite an entire family of your child’s friends to come join us. This is meant to be a recreational event that is fully inclusive so everyone is welcome. Skates and helmets are required to be on the ice. We will have snacks and hot cocoa when you need to take a break. If you require any assistance or need special accommodation, contact Bluesette at 306-236-6105.
Mom’s Night
This month’s Mom’s Night is hosted by Bluesette Campbell. This month we will be meeting at the Parkland Hotel’s Steak Pit. Come have a nice meal together ($20) and relax. We will be meeting at 5:30 and eating shortly thereafter.
Sports N Rec Night
Let’s get active! Sports N Rec is an all inclusive event. That means that every PACE family gets to invite a friend or a whole family!!! We usually meet up and recreate in a gym, outside or even at the pool. After breaking a sweat, we always have some snacks and drinks to revitalize. This is a family event (not a drop off) and a really great place to network with other parents. Usually we have a handful of volunteers from the junior high and high school to teach and interact with the kids. Always sure to be a good time!
February’s is at the Bowling Alley and Bear’s Den!

Family Gym Time
Erin and Jay Martin have graciously opened up their new gym across from the movie theatre for families to come and get a good work out together. Check out their new business and do something great for your body. It is from 1-2:30 pm and sure to be exhilarating.
I CAN Games
If your ordinary track meet events don’t leave you feeling pumped up and ready to take on the world, then perhaps the I CAN games are for you! Dorintosh Central School has been hosting an amazing track and field event for students who may need extra supports to get the same kind of enjoyment out of this tradition. Contact your child’s teacher or SSST and inquire how to get them registered. Registrations are typically due one week prior to the event. If you’d like to speak with a family that has experience with the games or have more questions, contact Bluesette Campbell at (306) 236-6105 or Dorintosh Central School at (306)236-3313.
Stampede Rodeo Security
Here is a great way to help PACE out by volunteering for the Stampede Association Bullorama and Rodeo. Every year PACE pools together 6-7 individuals for the Thursday-Saturday shows. We run the doors to make sure everyone has admission stamps. The Stampede Association pays PACE an honorarium for our services. Sign up and get a taste of cowboy culture. Contact Bluesette Campbell at 306-236-6105 to put your name down (and maybe a friend’s?).
