"Back Cast Flood Relief Benefit Film Night"
Along with everyone else in Southern Alberta, Bow River Shuttles watched in disbelief as the usually friendly waters of our local rivers - the Bow, Elbow, Highwood, Sheep and others - burst their banks, causing damage to hundreds of homes, and grief to thousands of residents.
Our thoughts and best wishes go out to all those affected during this difficult period in our collective history.
We know many residents are helping out in various ways, using their individual skills, talents, equipment and financial resources.
We'd like to chip in by presenting the 'Back Cast Flood Relief Benefit Film Night' on Friday July 19, 2013.
Net proceeds will be donated to The Calgary Foundation Flood Rebuilding Fund. (100% of donations go towards flood victims, there are NO admin fees, and their work includes Calgary, High River, Canmore and surrounding First Nations reserves)
