Hello Walkers!
The 2014 National Convention will be held in Banff, Alberta, Canada, from May 30 to June 1, 2014. Banff is Canada’s first National Park and has a wonderful blend of village shops and restaurants and significant wilderness with abundant trails and mountain lakes. The registration for this convention is now open and can be found at: http://www.cvfconvention2014.ca/Registration.php
The convention hotel, the Banff Park Lodge, is right in the middle of the Banff town site beside the Bow River. It is a fine hotel in a super location. Hotel information can be found at: http://www.cvfconvention2014.ca/Accommodation.php
We recognize this is one of those “bucket list” destinations and you will want to make the most of your trip. Our Trail Blazer, Niels Breum, has been busy setting up our President’s Walk and Convention Walk as well as 16 other self-guided walks within 1.5 hours of the town of Banff. Lots of amazing walks!!
In addition, a post convention tour is available to those who love walking/hiking in the mountains. It will visit Lake Louise, Jasper and Kananaskis country -- some of the best mountain sites in the whole world. To find out more look here:http://www.cvfconvention2014.ca/Post-Convention-Tour.php
Other activities include:
Dessert Reception Merchandise Sales
Western Banquet 50/50 Draw
Convention T-Shirts and Pins Silent Auction
Canadian Volkssport Federation AGM Park Warden Entertainment
Register early to avoid disappointment as the banquet and reception room holds 350 people.
We hope you will all come out and enjoy this great get together.
