About the Trade Fair
Encouraging positive outlets for the physical and mental well-being of our youth.
The Goal
To help families in Williams Lake with youth aged 4 - 18 years old learn about all the sports & activities offered in Williams Lake and connect with the organizations that offer them throughout the year!
The Details
WL Youth Soccer Association received a grant to provide recruitment and retention initiatives for our association. We understand that not all kids want to participate in soccer.
With the remaining funds from our grant, we are hosted 19 organizations for the trade fair!
We believe that all youth should participate in sports or activities to build their sense of belonging within the community. Participating in sports and activities helps build a child's confidence in themselves, and helps foster learning positive outlets to improve their physical and mental well-being.
