Weekend itineraries: what's happening

It’s time to shred that sick pow; Sunridge Ski Area is officially open for the season ⛷️💥. This local ski area is the place to go to dust off your skiing and snowboarding skills, and it’s found right here in Strathcona County!  Don’t worry if you have never skied or snowboarded; the upcoming holidays are a perfect time for lessons. If you prefer, they also have a snowtubing hill which is a great option to try out. Help support local businesses and check out Sunridge Ski Area this weekend.

We’ve heard it said that brunch is always a good idea, and that’s especially true on Saturdays and Sundays at Branches Fresh Food! If you miss out on the weekend brunch menu, their regular menu is worth a trip to check out at any point. They change their menu seasonally, and their winter drink options are now available. This weekend is a great time to head over to support this local restaurant found in Greenland Garden Center.

There are just over two weeks to go until Christmas. Are you ready? If not, head over to Greenland Garden Center to get everything you need to get in the holiday spirit. This family-owned greenhouse is an excellent option for everything you need, from decorations to gift options. Since you’re already planning to stop in at Branches Fresh Food this weekend, take a wander through Greenland as well and see what holiday décor you can find! Don’t worry; supporting a local business is always a great reason to treat yourself 😉

Please ensure that you are adhering to all public health mandates in place, including wearing a mask and physical distancing. Be ready to show your vaccination status, medical exemption or a negative, privately-paid COVID-19 test as part of the Restriction Exemption Program.

Be kind and enjoy the weekend in Sherwood Park and Strathcona County!
