Wondering what to do in between your favourite acts onstage this Canada Day? We have a few suggestions. Join the Native Friendship Society in their tipi for programming, including drumming and storytelling. Stop by face painter Jenjira Prapantha for a transformation. Visit Claudia Djonou for festive braids. Marvel at Wendy Meeres' artwork. Try jewelry hand-made by John Contois on for size. To release your excitement, hop on over to the bouncy castles provided by Big Bounce. Stay in the loop with what's going on in the community by talking to C.A.R.E., Canada Blood Services, RDLIP, Country Pride Dancers, Big 105.5 & 106.7 The Drive, Tourism Red Deer, RDCHS, and Canada Winter Games. Lost/Found a child or scraped a knee? Never fear, Safety Boss first aiders, and the RCMP, are here to help.
The Canada Day Celebration runs from 11:00am-11:30pm at Bower Ponds. Admission is free, and the park is accessible on foot, by bicycle, or by taking advantage of the Park N' Ride service running every 15 minutes from Sorensen Station, beginning at 10:45. FIREWORKS START AT 11PM.
