Organizers invite the campus community to save the date of June 24 for a barbecue to open festivities ahead of the spectacular fireworks honouring the friendship between Canada and the United States.

The Canada D’Eh Celebration will feature free food, games, music, and giveaways in the residence quad, starting at 3 p.m. Monday. In the event of inclement weather, the event will relocate to the CAW Student Centre.

Revellers are invited to proceed to the riverfront to take in the dazzling display, which is scheduled to begin at 9:55 p.m.

The barbecue, free and open to all, is hosted by the International Student Centre and sponsored by the student centre, Lancer Recreation, Residence Services, the student experience office, International Student Society, and Volunteer International Student Association.
