Join us for a joyous Feast of Tabernacles in Calgary Alberta, the sunniest city in Canada!
The Feast will be held at the Sheraton Cavalier Calgary Hotel. Many will enjoy the convenience of the conference facilities being located within the hotel, the location near the airport and within driving distance to many attractions and a vast array of restaurants. Several restaurants are within walking distance as well as a restaurant within the hotel. The young, and young at heart, will enjoy the indoor pool with a two-story water slide and a poolside restaurant.
Although there is an abundance of things to do in and around Calgary, we plan to provide many organized activities for brethren of all ages to enjoy together! Some of the planned activities include group dinner options, a family dance, teen/young adult activities and Bible study, family Bible study, children’s lessons, seniors’ luncheon, Jazz Dinner night, family outing at the world-renowned Calgary Zoo, a possible golf tournament, and if there is enough interest, a day in Banff with a gondola ride to the top of Sulphur mountain and dinner in the picturesque town of Banff.
Calgary is the largest city in Alberta, and its altitude of 1,045 m (3,428 ft) makes it the “highest” major city in Canada. Along with its noteworthy 333 average sunshine days per year, Calgary has been stated to be the cleanest city in the world! The city is also known for its amazing food scene with restaurants offering almost every cuisine around the world. The views of the Rocky Mountains and surreal landscapes add a unique charm to this place. There are many cultural, historical and entertainment attractions available in Calgary to please young and old alike.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love the massive parks in addition to being close to the Canadian badlands, the Kananaskis, and Banff National Park. A 90-minute drive west and you are in Banff National Park, the most visited park in Canada. The park includes many attractions and sites including the mountain towns of Banff, Canmore and Lake Louise. A short drive (1.5 hrs) north of Lake Louise and you can take in the Columbia Icefields. So come early or stay late and take in these world-renowned sites.
We look forward to rejoicing with you and your family this year in Calgary, Alberta!
