Smoky River Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) staff is gearing up for a fun trip that is sure to please all attendees.
But they aren’t telling you where they’re taking you!
Keeping it a secret is the whole premise behind the Mystery Trip that will be hosted on May 29, beginning at 6 p.m.
“The trip is a mystery to everyone, even our bus driver, and it was requested by one of our clients to provide a Mystery Trip for them, says FCSS community programmer Nycailah Belsher.
“FCSS and Smoky River Transportation are collaborating on this event to ensure they have both a great event to attend and a ride to and from the event.”
“Recently, we’ve had participants pre-register for activities without knowing what would be happening, so we’re confident attendees will enjoy themselves regardless, as the main thing is simply having a night out,” Belsher adds.
“Unfortunately, we are unable to give specifics as it is a Mystery Trip, and we don’t want anyone to be able to guess we are going.”
The event will cost each person $50 to attend, but will include the entertainment, supper, and transportation to and from the Falher Town Office, where the crew will be departing.
“The trip is open to everyone over the age of 18 and we’re hoping that our bus is full of adventurous people ready to have a great time,” says Belsher.
“Aline (Smoky River Transportation Coordinator Aline Roy) and I know it will be fun. Participants will get the chance to try something new, and they don’t even have to plan it themselves, making it thrilling and adventuresome.”
Belsher says supper, the ride, and the event are included in the fee, but drinks are extra money if the participants would like them.
