To commemorate the one-year anniversary of last year’s devastating flood, the City of Calgary has made June 21, 2014 Neighbour Day. While our city faced the biggest disaster in its history, the community spirit was inspiring, and that’s the kind of spirit Neighbour Day hopes to bring out in Calgarians.
If your neighbourhood hasn’t made arrangements to have a Neighbour Day party yet, there are a number of community associations that have planned events for this weekend. Here’s a list of Neighbour Day events this weekend:
