Last year I spent July first at the City of Surrey Canada Day Celebrations at Cloverdale Millennium Amphitheatre. It was a beautiful sunny day in a lovely park filled with all sorts of free entertainment!

I brought my lawn chair and a sun umbrella and picked a spot on the grass with a good view of the main stage. I then sat back and watched many of the music, dancing and magic shows that were part of the day’s festivities. The   estimated 70 000 people in attendance seemed to enjoy themselves and many were proudly dressed in clothing bearing the Canadian flag. The children seemed thrilled to have their faces painted with a red maple leaf and many danced and sang along with the performers of the children’s stage! The highlight of my day had to have been the fireworks display in the evening. What a great show!
