Here are some upcoming events sponsored by The South Whidbey Children's Center

Come Play With Us on the Fourth of July!
Join the South Whidbey Children's Center as we walk together in the Maxwelton 4th of July Parade. We will meet at the "parade gathering place" (near the parade start line) at 12:30 p.m. on July 4th.

Plan to leave early for this event, the parade is only one block long but there are big crowds and usually you have to walk quite a distance. If you have a South Whidbey Children's Center T-Shirt-wear it. If not we will have some available to purchase or borrow. Wagons and strollers are welcome, but bikes are not.

This is a very fun event and the kids love to be in the parade. We hope you can join us!
