On Saturday, March 6th from 11 am to 3 pm, the United Way and OSPS will be at Harrison Park to celebrate the March 2021 Pokémon Go Community Day.

“There is a significantly large group of players in the region and Owen Sound’s Harrison Park has the capacity to provider players with a significant Community Day experience,” explains Francesca Dobbyn, Executive Director of the United Way (and experienced Pokémon Go player.)

OSPS will be on hand with information and give-aways as well.
Bruce Power has supported the event as part of their winter sponsorship effort.

Over $2000 in prizes, cookies and other opportunities for fun are part of the event.

Tickets for the event are $10 each. Participants get a sticker to represent their team as well as a themed cookie made by Carrie’s Custom Cookies.
