Naramata Centre
Naramata Centre is an educational retreat located in Naramata BC (just outside of Penticton) which is operated by the United Church of Canada. We encourage friends of Parkdale to check into the many courses offered to personal learning, enrichment and creative study. Many Parkdale families enjoy their summer holidays at Naramata! And many of us have benefited from fall, winter and spring courses there too. http://www.naramatacentre.net/
