Seniors Emergency Preparedness Day is a community event focused on helping older adults build confidence and practical skills to respond to emergencies.

The event provides accessible information on topics such as evacuation planning, personal safety, emergency supplies, and staying connected during a crisis.

Participants can engage with local emergency services and community organizations to learn about available supports and resources. The goal is to strengthen preparedness, promote independence, and ensure seniors feel informed and supported in managing emergency situations.

National Indigenous Peoples Day is observed annually on June 21 to recognize and celebrate the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples across Canada.

Join us as we celebrate culture, community,
and tradition through teachings, games,
crafts, dancing, drumming, and hand
games. Enjoy vendors, food trucks, and
traditional food tastings throughout the
da
