November Newsletter - Remembrance Day and November Events

With Remembrance Day Ceremonies happening at many venues across the city, Edmonton offers plenty of of space to pay our respects.  With the chaos of the election in the US this week, it is the perfect time to reflect on just how fortunate we are to have the freedoms we do, and to honor those individuals who gave their time and their lives to ensuring these values.   If you want more detail on where you can attend local ceremonies, please visit:  Remembrance Day Ceremonies

It's hard to believe that it is November in Alberta, these near record setting temperatures have us enjoying an extended fall.  At this rate we even stand a chance of making the snow removal budget! The trails and parks have been filled with dog walkers, runners and happy kids playing; an indication as to just how active our communities are.  Looking for ways to get out and enjoy this weather, and celebrate our city and surrounding areas?  Here are some great upcoming November events: Nov 12th:  Holiday Light Up will be held in Sir Winston Churchill Square from 4-7 pm Nov 17th:  Christmas Light Up in Stony Plain, 6:30 pm, Downtown Nov 19th:  Celebration of Lights in Strathcona County, 3-5 pm at the Community Centre Nov 25th:  Snowflake Festival in St Albert, 6:30-9 pm in the Perron District Nov 25th: Brighten Up Beaumont Details to be announced Nov 25th:  Lights Up Celebration, 5-7 pm at Ft Saskatchewan City Hall Nov 24th to 27th:  Festival of Trees at the Shaw Conference Centre 2016 is slowly winding down, and it has been a difficult year for many Albertans, and many Canadians who have been affected by this economic downturn.  If we all take a brief moment to do things like hold a door for a stranger, pay for a random coffee, donate food or our time, or even smile at someone we've never met, it's amazing what can happen.  Take time to spread a little gratitude and a little positivity into the world around you.
