Valemount Adventures in Birding

May 28–30, 2010
Celebrate Nature!
Celebrate the Return of the Birds!
Celebrate Spring!

Come out and join us as we learn, explore, and play on trails around Valemount. Whether you prefer to walk, hike, paddle, float, run or ride your ATV, there will be something for everyone—young and old. Most events are by donation. Proceeds go towards development and maintenance of the Cranberry Marsh and surrounding trails. Additional charges may apply for certain events.  The festival will include a Welcome Reception at the Visitor Information Centre; guided hikes and walks; spotting scopes on the marsh; a children's activity tent; guided canoeing on the marsh; float trips; guided ATV ride; and evening entertainment.
