We look forward to hosting the Session in Calgary, the City by the Bow, nestled between the Prairies of Alberta to the North and East and the Rocky Mountains of Western Alberta. The Calgary TELUS Convention Centre is in the heart of downtown Calgary with easy access to downtown shopping and restaurants and public transportation to shopping centres a short commute away. The hotels are attached to the Convention Centre – two directly and one by the “Plus 15” overhead walkway. (Why is it a Plus 15? Because it’s 15 feet above ground level.) Many attractions are nearby including, Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, the Royal Tyrrell Museum (dinosaurs!); and we are offering a trip to Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper, and the Columbia Ice Fields at the end of the Session so you can walk on a glacier. Of course, we are hoping with all our hearts that the dreaded “Covid 19” will have died down and that there will be no travel restrictions. I suspect that “face coverings” may be with us for a good long time to come, and it might be a good idea to bring a face-mask with you. Perhaps you could make a mask representative of or coordinating with your outfit or even representative of the good things we do for the Shriners Hospitals for Children®. Have fun with the ideas you can come up with. We hope that you will be “Alberta Bound” (see songs by Gordon Lightfoot and Paul Brandt) and enjoy our true Western Canadian Hospitality.
