Registration is now closed

********  IMPORTANT CHANGE IN ROSEBUD TRIP PARKING ***********

We have a change in parking for this trip, the bus will leave from the Trico Centre not South Centre.  Please park in the South East Corner of the Trico Parking lot away from the building and closer to Anderson Road. 

Enjoy a day trip to Rosebud and the Rosebud Theatre to see their production of All is Calm.  The play by Peter Rothstein tells the remarkable true story of the  World War 1 unofficial, impromptu cease-fire, the Christmas truce of 1914.  An extraordinary night of camaraderie, music, and peace is told in the words and songs of the men who lived it.  The play runs for approximately 65 minutes and there is no intermission.

The tour includes the bus trip to Rosebud, theatre tickets, a buffet lunch, tea/coffee, all gratuities.  Pop and alcohol is EXTRA.  There may be time after lunch to browse the shops in Rosebud.

The bus will arrive back in Calgary at approximately 5:00PM depending on traffic. 

The cost for this trip is $100.00
