How to Get There:

Event Directions:

From 14 ST SW, (south of Glenmore Trail) turn west into Heritage Drive SW towards Heritage Park. Do not go into the first carpark you see on the left. Keep going and look for the sign that says Marina. The boat ramp/dock area is right next to the main entrance of the park. You'll see a lot of sailing boats parked around there. We'll be gathering around the picnic tables where the boats will be.

DON'T go to the Sailing Club or the Canoe Club.
