🌿 A heartfelt thank-you to Drayton Valley Toyota! 🌿
The Balanced Outdoor Learning and Discovery Society (BOLD Society) is a local not-for-profit dedicated to creating opportunities for children and youth to learn, discover, and explore outdoors. Drayton Valley Toyota’s generous donation is supporting two important BOLD programs:
🌱 Lil’ Explorers
A portion of the donation supports Lil’ Explorers, giving young children opportunities to connect with nature through outdoor play, discovery, and learning.
🚐 Transportation for school field trips
A portion will help cover transportation for approximately 40 field trips for K–12 schools in our community. Transportation costs can be a barrier to hands-on outdoor learning, and this support helps make BOLD field trip experiences more accessible to local students.
Together, these programs will support more than 5,000 hours of outdoor learning, discovery, and exploration for children and youth in our community.
Thank you, Drayton Valley Toyota, for investing in local young people and helping make outdoor learning more accessible! 💚

Don’t forget to check out this absolutely amazing haunted house this coming week. So much love and hard work is put in by Lori and the Can-Vac crew every year.
And they do all of this to raise money for several different local groups 🧡 🖤
Each day has kid friendly times where there are no live props and lights are on :)

🍂✨ What an amazing fall day for Fairy Soup! 🧚‍♀️🍲
Fairy Soup by Wendy Nickel is such a beautiful book—and the perfect inspiration for our Lil’ Explorers!
A little imagination, a little nature, and lots of outdoor exploring made for a magical day. 🍁🌿✨
Learning through stories, play, and connection with the natural world—that’s what being a Lil’ Explorer is all about! 💚
