Eston announces their Summer Kickoff 2022
By Joan Janzen
The Town of Eston is excited about hosting their Summer Kickoff 2022 event from June 10th to 12th. The weekend of packed events begins on Friday with a slo-pitch tournament, which continues on Saturday, with finals on Sunday. Bret Howe, Recreation Director at the Town of Eston, said they’re expecting ten teams to join in the tournament at the Eston Fairgrounds.
While enjoying the ball games on Saturday, spectators will be able to enjoy delicious food at the food trucks. Kids will love jumping in Apollo Jump’s bouncy castles, sponsored by the Eston Co-op, and visiting Erin Pope’s petting zoo, sponsored by the Legion. Or they can go for a toonie swim at the Eston pool.
The Eston Senior Ramblers Hockey Club and executive members are hosting a fun time of street hockey for kids 16 and under over at the outdoor rink. Later on, in the evening, the whole family can listen and dance to the music of Mitch Larock and the 454 Band at Reaburn Field.
The Lions 95 will be cooking pancakes on the grill at the Eston AGT Community Centre Sunday morning. A morning market begins at the curling rink lobby shortly afterward, with about twenty tables expected to be booked.
Meanwhile, Bret Howe, along with Kim Lane, the Economic Development Officer, members of their subcommittee, and numerous community volunteers, will be working hard to ensure everything runs smoothly. Summer Kickoff 2022 is sure to be fun for everyone!
