Events

You are invited to participate in any of the upcoming events to learn more about Bishop Grandin Greenway. Invite your friends and neighbours – we have an exciting year planned! Photos of past events can be viewed at the photo gallery.


INTERNATIONAL TRAILS DAY
 
DATE: Saturday, June 5
TIME: 8:30 am – 11:00 am
PLACE: All along the Greenway.
DETAILS: Its spring and time to shake off winter, embrace the sun and connect with family and friends. Hop on a bike, lace up your walking shoes and travel down the Greenway to discover new activities.

Escape to BGG’s giant backyard and find your reason to smile. Will it be watching the PEG City Disc Dogz catching Frisbees, or trying the new urban poling walking workout, or watching the amazing bike skills of Peg City Trials. Maybe you’ll have time to finally learn the names of those wild flowers or chat about the local St.Vital history with the costumed interpreter from the Riel House, or learn about container gardening. You may also find the Plum Blossom Martial Arts Academy giving a free beginner Tai Chi or Kung Fu class.

Bring a child or grandchild or your grandparent- make it a family affair. Kids can use dipping nets to find life one of the ponds, play hopscotch or participate in interactive story telling at the reading tent. They might want to build a bird house, kits and instruction courtesy of Home Depot or you might want to try the “at-your own pace” scavenger hunt.

It’s healthy, it’s active, and it’s free. A perfect way to spend a morning!
