The Edmonton Food Bank will be on site collecting monetary and non-perishable food donations at our events this year! Watch for their volunteers roaming the events – they’ll be happy to collect your donations!
We’re also going to have members of the Red Shoe Society providing volunteer help on site all weekend! If you see them, be sure to chat with them about all the amazing work they do supporting the Ronald McDonald House Charity in Northern Alberta.
