Ample public parking spaces are available.
Pooches:
As per our event license, and the City of Edmonton’s bylaws, dogs should not be within 10 meters of the picnic sites or playgrounds. (There is a concern of contamination of food, sand, and children’s play areas) As long as pets are on a leash and are in control of their owners, they are welcome.
Park Respect:
Please ensure garbage is thrown out and the grounds are respected. We want to ensure we can return to a City of Edmonton park next year.

Lunch will be unavailable for anyone who is not on the RSVP.
