Danville Recreation & Expo Open House Will Have Willy Wonka Theme

DANVILLE, CA — It may be cold and rainy now, but spring and summer are just around the corner. On Feb. 4, the Town of Danville will host its 13th annual Recreation & Expo Open House to highlight all the activities it is offering.

Class instructors and town staff will be spread out over three buildings from 10-1 to answer questions about all the different courses, camps, and activities they are offering. The same activities will be highlighted in the spring activity guide. Starting Jan. 25, the guide will be mailed to Danville, Alamo and Diablo residents starting Jan. 25, and will be available online.

Registration for spring programs, summer camps and aquatics begins on February 14. Open registration for all other spring programs will begin on February 21.

The expo will take place at three locations, with different activities at each site:

• Danville Community Center, 420 Front Street
• Village Theatre & Art Gallery, 233 Front Street
• Danville Senior Center at the Veterans Memorial Building, 115 E. Prospect Avenue

The expo will be much more than just information booths, however. Visitors will be able to participate in several popular activities, like Arts & Rec on the Go at the Danville Community Center; trivia games and artwork displays at the Village Theatre & Art Gallery; and bingo at the Danville Senior Center.

The theme to this year’s expo is Willy Wonka, and guests will have the opportunity to receive a Golden Ticket to register early. Danville mascot Auggie the Acorn will also host a Willy Wonka scavenger hunt for different Wonka characters located in each building. Guests who complete the scavenger hunt can win a Golden Ticket and win raffle prizes.
