We hope that you will join us in celebrating our amazing heritage and building relationships and family bonds among our family members. We welcome you to the beautiful location of Canmore, Alberta, in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. The town of Canmore is a growing vacation destination in western Canada, just outside Banff National Park. You will love this scenic mountain town, with its rugged mountain peaks, abundant wildlife, and eclectic shops. For over 125 years, Banff National Park has provided visitors with a combination of unspoiled wilderness, modern amenities and opportunities for active exploration. With its breathtaking landscape, it’s no surprise that this UNESCO World Heritage Site has been nominated time and again as a “must-see” destination for travelers around the world. This reunion will focus on our family stories from both past and present. We look forward to learning more about what Oftebros around the world are doing today! Our “Save the Date” announcement earlier this year resulted in over 120 Oftebros replying with intentions of attending next year’s reunion. We hope you and your family will plan to join us! Please register for the reunion as soon as possible, and not later than January 31, 2014! 2 Radisson Hotel and Conference Centre in Canmore, Alberta The Radisson Hotel and Conference Centre in Canmore will be our central location for the reunion.
