Weekend itineraries: heat wave!

It’s Trail Days at South Cooking Lake this weekend! Head down the highway on Saturday and enjoy the great event put on by the South Cooking Lake Community League. This is a great family-friendly event in a great rural part of Strathcona County. Don’t miss out on the pancake breakfast, parade, kids’ activities, and more that are taking place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

With such hot temperature expected this weekend, you aren’t going to want to turn the oven on and heat your house up more! Don’t worry; there are plenty of local restaurants for you to check out. Sawaddee Thai Cuisine has been open since 2015 and has been serving authentic Thai food in Sherwood Park since then. They are a locally owned business, and one that’s worth checking out this weekend.

A new clothing store has opened up in Sherwood Park a few weeks ago – just in time to get ready for fall fashion! Maurices has opened up in Emerald Hills and is another option when looking to refresh your wardrobe. They believe in style, service, and community, so head over to their location and welcome them to the area.
