Invite friends and family to enjoy a patio social, the picturesque view and local food and beverage features. Friday’s events run from 6:00pm to 10:00pm.

On Saturday, start the morning with a 10:30am group yoga flow class hosted by Christy Defranco and followed by the Mountain Equipment Co-op Family Games Zone taking place in the Plaza. Head up in the afternoon for lantern-making, floral crowns, pre-registered sunset yoga flow and end the evening with an animated Lantern Walk led by Carolyn Grass and Ihor Zalubniak around the Panorama Trail.
