The Dauphin Friendship Centre's hosting its annual Picnic in the Park tonight from 5-7 p.m. between the DFC and the Youth Centre. The first hot dog and drink are free for all in attendance, and after that, it's just a small fee for anyone who wants more, says Event Coordinator Jarri Thompson.

"This year we're doing it a little bit later just to kind of kick off the fall season and back to school. We're gonna be having the bouncy castle, games, face painting, and entertainment by Desiree Dorion, Emma Peterson, and Quinton Blair."

There's also going to be a silver collection at the event if people want to donate to the Centre.

"The silver collection will probably go towards our Truth and Reconciliation Ceremony being held at the end of the month."

Thompson says there's seating at the event, but people can bring their own lawn chairs and blankets, to make sure they're comfortable.
