Things are still uncertain in this time of Covid, but we at WR Nonviolence are hopeful that we’ll resume our annual Day In The Park in September of 2021.

The City of Kitchener has not yet determined if outdoor events in the Summer or Fall will take place, but we’re following their announcements closely, and we’ll let everyone know when things are happening.
