Special Pancake Breakfast
One of Calgary's favorite traditions is the pancake breakfast. It is as integral to Calgary as cowboy hats and calf roping. Delegates will be able to sample true western hospitality with flapjacks, bacon, coffee, juice, and of course, some country music. Our Conference Pancake Breakfast will also feature square dancing, line dancing, and western bands - what a way to start the day!
