As part of the group’s 50-year celebration, the Child Development Centre had Fort St. John city council proclaim February as CDC month.
Events throughout the month will help raise money for future initiatives and projects. Some of these past events include Donut Days with the Canadian Grind and CDC staff baking cookies with Baking Me Crazy.
