Fraser Street puts finishing touches in place for its Block Party on Saturday

They're promising the biggest Block Party yet for the Fraser Street area and maybe even for the City, as Prince Rupert's Friendship House hosts what has become a popular community event on Saturday.

The Fraser Street Block Party, takes place from 11 AM to 4 PM on Saturday  and features a number of activities for young and old, among some of the main attractions for the Day, a Bouncy Castle ready to inflate  and entertain for hours and musicians tuning up their instruments to join in on the fun with Live Music through the event.

Face Painting, Sidewalk Chalk Art, Games and Giveaways will also run through the five hours of celebration in the heart of the city's Fraser Street Area.

The Start of the annual Kids Back to School Back Packs distribution, which is coordinated through the Salvation Army and other community partners will also be part of the day's events.

It's the third anniversary of the Friendship House hosted event, which makes for a good way to wind down the summer season and get the young ones ready for Back to School.

The Party will take place along all of Fraser Street and half way up 7th Street where the Friendship House can be found. Joining in on the fun for the day will be many of the business groups along the Fraser Street area as well as the RCMP and a number of community groups in the city.
