Canada Day will be jam-packed with festivities in Grand Forks! The parade starts Sunday at 10AM at Dick Bartlett Park, and Gallery 2 is offering kids free bike decorating for the parade at 8:30AM. Anna Lactin with Community Futures Boundary says MP Richard Cannings will be in town!
She says anyone is welcome to take part in the parade, but a lot of the festivities will be down at Gyro Park.
Lactin adds that Canada Day is important because it acknowledges and celebrates the birth of our country while rightfully kicking off the Summer. Gyro Park will feature food, entertainment, and vendors. There’s also a watermelon feast at noon, and the serving of Canada’s birthday cake at 12:30.
