Saanich Cycling Festival District of Saanich Location: University of Victoria (Lot #10) Time: 10:00 a.m. Phone: 250 475 5558 and 250 475 5411 The District of Saanich is starting to plan for our annual Cycling Festival and we are contacting organizations that participated in 2011 to see if you would be interested in joining us again this year.
We have chosen Earth Day (Sunday, April 22) to be the day we celebrate. We feel that the Cycling Festival is a fitting celebration for this day and we have secured the University of Victoria as our event location once again. The route for the large Family Bike is still being determined but we are looking to plan a wide variety of activities for the Festival portion. |
