Hi, I'm Madison Nesom I'll be your summer events host this year!

I am looking forward to kicking the summer off this weekend at the Little Britches Rodeo packed with fun activities!

Catch me at the parade Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m, following with events happening at the rodeo grounds. Saturday will also consist of the "River of Music Festival" hosted in George Lane Park at 11:30 a.m, along with the "Cultural Taste of HIgh River" at the Highwood Memorial Centre at 12:00 p.m.

If you're looking to get out of town, or check out something new, you can visit Bar U Ranch National Historic Site's "Hometown Heroes" weekend. Learn about the role of agriculture, animals and hometown heroes from the region who fought in the First World War. The event runs from May 20 to 21 AND you get free entry with your Parks Canada Discovery Pass! Don't worry, if you haven't picked up your Discovery pass you can get one at the entrance.

This year we are celebrating Canada's 150th, so let's make it a great summer High River!
