For newcomers to our community. Youth and families welcome! Registration required.

Beginning at the City Centre Branch library, the newcomer tour will focus on the Town Centre area. You can learn about the businesses and services nearby, plus pick up some history and geography. 

Teen guides will lead the tour. Some are multi-lingual.
