March 2016 - september 2016What’s On in Wyre

Wyre Council is embracing a national initiative to get youngsters out and about at Wyre Estuary Country Park in Thornton, Memorial Park in Fleetwood and atRossall Point.

Explore our parks, find the markers, complete the challenge, have fun together! Xplorer is the perfect outdoor activity for primary and pre-school children and their families.

Xplorer is a family friendly navigation challenge that is educational and fun. It gives children a sense of adventure as they explore the park to find the markers. It involves a healthy mix of physical activity and decision making that the whole family can enjoy together. No experience of map reading is necessary and parents are encouraged to join in!

Older children will have fun competing against their friends or other family members whilst younger children will enjoy the excitement of successfully finding the markers.

All our xplorer activities cost just 50p and you can find details of Wyre’s events at

wyre.gov.uk/xplorer
