... it's never too early to start planning!
I know it's only January but I thought I would post the dates and location for Westiva 2013.
When: Saturday July 13th, 2013
Where: Wedge Pond, Kananaskis Country, Alberta, Canada (about a one hour drive from Calgary's western city limits).
What: Meet and greet at the pond in the morning. After a picnic lunch we'll take an afternoon cruise to grab an ice cream cone at Boulton Creek Store and then on to the Upper Kananaskis Lake.
Campgrounds in the area fill up fast so I would recommend making reservations.
Mount Kidd (http://www.mountkiddrv.com/) is the closest, and nicest, but there are a couple of other options that aren't too far away.
These are only about a 30-40 minute drive at most from Wedge Pond.

As for hotels the closest are located in Kananaskis Village, not far from Wedge Pond.
Lets see if we can make it back into double digits this year! We had 4 Festivas in '08, 5 in '09, 10 in '10, 5 in '11 and 4 Festivas and a Subaru Vivio last year!
Last year's Festivas
This is the sixth year at this beautiful location. The date happens to be the last Saturday of the Calgary Stampede so you could come early and take in the "Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth"!
Looking forward to some long distance attendees this year!
