Halloween and Easter Activities
Every year, a family activity day is organized for Halloween. Planned activities include scary story telling, food sampling, games, crafts and a rally. Of course there is always lots of candy! The only requirement is to wear a costume. We also organize an Easter egg hunt which is held at the Community Centre. It’s a fun-filled morning full of activities, surprises and chocolates.
Various Courses
A Fall and Winter schedule is planned in order to give you the opportunity to register to different courses offered at the MFRC: dance, cooking, drawing, or any suggestions you may have.
Family Day
The goal of having a Family Day during the summer is to offer a wide variety of family activities to the military community and to welcome new families to 3 Wing. Family Day is the perfect opportunity to familiarize family members with the military work place. It’s also a great way to discover the many social activities made available to the military community. Finally, the Family Day is intended to bring all the families together from different sections of the base.
Carnival Family Day
Every winter, the Wing Carnival is held in February. Our famous Carnival Family Day, always begins with a family breakfast followed by many indoor and outdoor activities.
The Anglophone Connection
Anglophone families of the military community now have a support group to help facilitate their integration into the region. The Anglophone Connection’s goal is to create a bond between Anglophone families by taking part in multiple activities such as BBQs, restaurant outings, coffee, movies, etc. A member of the group can also accompany a new member to an appointment at different francophone institutions. The Anglophone group allows newcomers to make a smoother transition into a francophone community, and thus help families feel more at home.
