Out of Africa with Kids

This has been something that has been long overdue, we sometimes have get togethers for adults only, but now it is time for families with children to get together and get to know each other. 

Here’s the schedule for the followingSaturdays 10am-1pm:  Most outings will be combined with a picnic!
 
2 July – Country Village Bothell
30 July – Kirkland Waterfront
27 AugustVolunteer Park (Seattle)
10 September – Farrel McWhirter Park
15 October
5 November - Pacific Science Center, Seattle
17 December – To be announced  

Dates and venues are subject to change due to the weather etc.  More comprehensive details with directions and costs will be emailed before each outing!
 
We see this as an opportunity for South African families with children to connect with each other, exchange tips on living in Seattle with kids, promote South African culture and languages to enrich our kids, and for us and our children to make friends – perhaps some lifelong friends!  We are no expert about Seattle but would love to explore with fellow South African.
