Kiwanis Club, Interpretive Program teaming up for Family Day fun

By ANNA SMITH Local Journalism Initiative on January 30, 2025.

The Medicine Hat Interpretive Program and Kiwanis Club of Medicine Hat are coming together to give residents a Family Day to remember.

“There’s no better way to beat the winter doldrums than with a free scavenger hunt adventure through the park, with the chance to win some exciting prizes,” MHIP says in a release.

Attendees will be able to also build their own wildlife kits for $8, to provide local birds with food and shelter, and helping to make Medicine Hat a more bird-friendly city. Interpreters will be available throughout the park, equipped with educational materials and answers to any questions.

The Kiwanis Club will be present to provide those celebrating on Feb. 17 with complimentary cookies and hot chocolate, or guests can roast a hot dog over an open fire at the fire pit for a $1.

MHIP expressed gratitude for additional funding from the City of Medicine Hat’s Community Vibrancy Grant, which will help make the day even more enjoyable for the community.

The Family Day festivities will be available at Police Point Park from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
