***Weather conditions are unpredictable and there is no accessible indoor space or shelter at Glencairn Park. Our general rule of thumb is to postpone an outdoor event if the percentage of the chance of rain/storms is 40% and higher with no indoor space readily available. We will typically make the call no later than 2 hours before the event.  As weather conditions can change quickly, we kindly ask that Core Members have an alternate transportation or pickup plan available in the event of unexpected inclement weather. If weather conditions shift rapidly, we encourage group homes and support teams to be prepared to arrange pickup or a safe ride home, as there is limited shelter available at Glencairn Park.

*** Please note that at the present time Astonished! Staff and volunteers do not provide personal care (washroom needs).

***It is very important that you RSVP for events, as we use the RSVP list to communicate any weather-related cancellations, schedule changes, or important event updates.

• Name of the activity/event
