I hope this long weekend gave you time to slow down and look forward . . . to summer events, community connections, new programs, and the energy that warmer days bring across the Brooks Region. We’ll be back next week with updates, highlights, and opportunities to get involved. Until then, I hope you enjoy this Victoria Day week!
