It's a Jamboree that is all about family.

The Little Valley Jamboree returns this weekend at the Erickson Rec Centre. Starting Friday at 6 and running until Saturday at midnight, the two-day Jamboree has something for the entire family to enjoy.

Toni Ferguson is a board member.

"Both days, we have music playing every hour, live bands. On Saturday, we have a kids' zone outside. Bouncy castles, petting zoo, face painting," said Ferguson. "Those are just a few of the things going on. We also have silent and live auctions. There will be great food."

Every year, the committee provides a cheque to three children in the community who are sick to cover their medical expenses. This year, Brooks Davis, John Jacob Bernardo, and Odin Hebert are recipients. All funds collected will be divided equally among the three.

Camping is available. A weekend pass is $30 or $20 for a day pass. Those aged 17 and under are free. 

Ferguson, who says this is always one of her most enjoyable weekends of the year, can't wait for Friday.

"It's all excitement. I love listening to the bands, we have some bigger names coming this year," ended Ferguson. "If you've ever been there, you walk in and feel the community love. We call it the Jamboree family."

So if you're looking for something fun to do this weekend, the Little Valley Jamboree has you covered.
