Family is important to everyone. Although no family is “perfect,” it can be a wonderful environment for growth and nurturing of its members. In a fast-paced and demanding world, it can offer a place to connect and catch our breath.
2009 marks the 25th anniversary of National Family Week in Canada, October 5 through October 11.
National Family Week is always celebrated the week leading up to Thanksgiving, a very appropriate connection. National Family Week is a time dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the positives and the strengths of family.
During National Family Week, take time to reflect on and appreciate what is important to you about your family and what traditions have strengthened your family’s ties. There are a variety of activities scheduled in Banff during the week. For details, please check out our Calendar of Events.
