Stampede 2017 Highlights

The Back-Mobile in the Bowness Stampede Parade. This year's theme: "We've Got Your Back". Not only was our office in the parade, but we also opened Elan for a Mom and Babe Sanctuary, for parents to feed, nurse, change bums, or just escape the sun and crowds.  The Simon House invited their neighbours for a BBQ Lunch. Here we are with a former practice member Ravi and Associate Health Minister (and friend!) Brandy Payne.    Scarlett and I en route to the Carya Pancake Breakfast held in Montgomery. Carya provides resources and support for families and seniors in our neighbourhoods.  Yee-haw! Its been a fun Stampede and we hope you enjoy this look at a few of our local events! 

Stampede in Bowness

Yee-haw!   It's Calgary Stampede time and Elan had it's first opportunity to have a piece of stampede right outside it's doors.  On Saturday, July 4th, Bowness had it's annual parade and pancake breakfast.  The parking lot outside our office was filled with griddles, hungry parade go-ers, local businesses and community groups, and live music.    We opened the office as a Mom and Babes Sanctuary - somewhere clean and quiet to change or nurse baby.  Here's some photos of the day: Thank you to the Bowness Lions and all of the amazing volunteers that make this event happen.  We always look forward to the Bowness parade day!
