The Tour de Delta offers ways to get festive.
The North Delta Community Festival, held in conjunction with the MK Delta Criterium on Friday evening, and the South Delta Community Festival, held as part of the White Spot Delta Road Race in Tsawwassen on Sunday, add another dimension to the cycling weekend.
Set to run from 5 to 9 p.m. on the grounds of Richardson Elementary (11339-83rd Ave.), the Friday fest will be a celebration of North Delta sport, recreation and culture, and provide an opportunity to try a variety of sports and experience Delta. Other activities include children's crafts, food vendors, face painting and more.
Sunday's festival, which will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Dennison Park (755-53rd St.), offers family fun as well as a great view of the finish line.
It will include a Sports Zone featuring 13 local sporting organizations with activities and information about their programs. There will also be a Kids Zone with a bike obstacle park, bouncy castle and more, a Community Zone with interactive displays and booths from local groups as well as a Food and Beverage Zone.
