The Last Days of Summer Picnic

"Nothing says summer like (hard) lemonade and a picnic blanket.”

Let's enjoy one of the last days of summer and meet up in beautiful Confederation Park for a leisurely group picnic overlooking the duck pond. Bring your blanket & picnic basket (or knapsack) filled with picnic essentials for yourself. And if you have a frisbee and/or baseball glove (and a baseball), bring them with you as well...

Confederation Park was created to celebrate Canada’s Centennial in 1967, and is considered an outstanding achievement in landscape design. One of its most distinguishable features are the park's carefully moulded and sculpted topography with its gently sloped and contoured hillsides and is oriented around the naturally occurring stream and coulee. The design concept originates from a landscape style known as Picturesque, originating in England in the 18th century and still influencing the landscape architect profession today.
