New features at the show this year include a section hosted by Farm to Table BC, an organization that brings healthy, local, culturally appropriate and sustainable food practices into classrooms. They’ll be demonstrating tower and microgreen gardens, as well as having games and activities for kids. Dragon Boat BC will be demonstrating the physical, spiritual and emotional benefits of the sport, and Nintendo will be on hand so you can experience their Ring Fit Adventure game for the Nintendo Switch. It’s an active video game that drops you into a fantasy world, but you must defeat your enemies by jogging, sprinting and kicking. It’s a virtual game with a real-life workout! The ever-popular Table Tennis section will be back again for this year’s show!
