The Dauphin Derailleurs Cycle Club will be hosting a series of activities at the Northgate Trailhead today, October 1st.
The event will start with a group bike ride for all levels at 2 p.m., which will be followed by a barbecue at 3:30 p.m. and a performance by The Ben Sures Three from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Event Organizer Melissa Stefaniw says that the main goal of hosting the event is to showcase Northgate and celebrate the resiliency of the community.
"We wanted to get people out to actually gather face-to-face and enjoy the last days of summer... It's going to be a nice day... so we wanted to invite everyone out," she adds.
Being able to host an event like this makes Stefaniw feel fantastic.
"Northgate is really near and dear to my heart. I, personally, was part of getting the project up and running... Now we're doing all kinds of programming up there, so we'd really like to get people out to enjoy the actual facilities that we have up there... You don't necessarily need to be on a bike or... be doing anything crazy active," she adds.
According to Melissa Stefaniw, all of the activities, including the barbecue, are free
Anyone looking to attend is being asked to bring a lawn chair.
