π΄ββοΈ Thank You, Fort Sask Cyclists and Fort Sask E-Bikers π΄ββοΈ
A big thank you to the Fort Saskatchewan cyclists who came out on the weekend for the River Valley Alliance Fort Sask / Lamoureux Historical Cycling Tour!
Our local cyclists joined riders from the other River Valley Alliance (RVA) municipalities, coming together to explore the river valley, enjoy the trails, and discover the history of the Fort Saskatchewan and Lamoureux areas.
It was great to see Fort Sask represented among cyclists from across the region.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make it such a great regional cycling event! π²π

π¨ WEDNESDAY WALK ALERT! π¨
The forecast is looking fantastic... which means Alberta has temporarily run out of excuses. π
And don't forget... The morning walk is now at 8:00 a.m.! β°
Now for the important business...
The morning walkers are convinced they'll crush the evening crowd because they get the "best part of the day."
The evening walkers insist the morning people are only there because they're awake at 5:30 anyway. π
Who's right?
There's only one way to settle this...
Show up and help your team claim the bragging rights! π
π Morning Team π West River's Edge Pavilion π 8:00 a.m.
π Evening Team π Fort Heritage Precinct π‘ 6:30 p.m.
Remember... the walking is just the excuse.
The real reason we come is to laugh, visit, make new friends... and gently remind the other team that they picked the wrong time to walk. ππ
