Did you know?
A team of 40 volunteers from UCalgary — alumni, students, faculty, and staff — provided the muscle to keep our float in motion during the Calgary Stampede parade. Whew!
Speaking of floats, Rex in Space — the name of the latest float iteration from UCalgary — won the Most Creative/Innovative Float award when it debuted in 2023.
How ’bout that parade! That’s the giddy-up spirit we love to see. Hats off to everyone who makes this colourful event come together every year.
