We will walk from Kinsmen Sports Centre to Hawrelak Park where we will attend the Heritage Festival  !!!  The walking distance will be twice 5km plus the amount we walk around the festival grounds.  Probably 20km total.   Please look for me in a yellow hat on the steps of Kinsmen Sports Centre as shown in this photo.

The 40th Anniversary Heritage Festival 2015 will feature 62 pavilions representing over 85 cultures from all over the world!  Sample culinary delicacies, see creative performances, shop for crafts, artwork, and clothing, or chat with people eager to tell you a little about their cultural roots and their present-day communities in Canada.  Various pavilions will also be showcasing cultural displays with photos, paraphernalia, and stories about their culture or ethnic background in Edmonton.

Admission FREE, but a donation for Edmonton’s Food Bank would be appreciated. Please note that this is a city park and NO DOGS ALLOWED.  Food tickets can be purchased at the festival grounds or purchased in advance at Save On Foods, Servus Credit Union or Tickets on the Square .
