The Feast of Tabernacles for the prairies will be held in Lethbridge, Alberta. The Lethbridge area is an agricultural bread basket with its irrigation and long growing season. It is also the gateway to the southern Canadian Rocky Mountains, where you can go hiking, camping and more. Lethbridge is one of the sunniest cities in Canada, with 330 days of sunshine per year. Its river valley coulees are home to one of North America's largest urban park systems, with over 240 km of trails. With a population of 110,000, Lethbridge does not have the big city traffic problems, meaning you will be able to have a typical commute of about 20 minutes from anywhere in the city.
