Saturday March 13
Take some time on Saturday to socialize and explore our fine city. We came up with a few fun ideas you might like to try:
Scavenger Hunt
What better way to explore a city than to go on a lindy scavenger adventure!?! We highly recommend you take part in our photo/video scavenger hunt with stops at various attractions within Saskatoon.
Skating on the River Bank
Not up for a full scale lindy attack on the city? Take your time and relax with some skating at the outdoor rink on the river bank by the Delta Bessborough Hotel. Run by Meewasin Valley Authority, the rink has skates to borrow by donation. Never tried skating before? Well now's your chance. (weather permitting)
Bud's on Broadway Saturday Afternoon Jam
Just need some music and a corner to dance in? Well, Bud's has an afternoon jam that might get your toes tapping.
