Celebrate Canada’s Parks Day 2014 On July 19th
The 3rd Saturday of July each year is Canada’s Parks Day!
Canada’s Parks Day is an annual event where Canadians participate in fun, educational, family-oriented events in parks and Historic Sites across the country. Many activities highlight the important role that parks play in maintaining healthy and resilient ecosystems, protecting critical habitat for species-at-risk and contributing to human health and well-being.
