Following Vancouver, the coast-to-coast bus travelled to Alberta for festivities at the beautiful Muttart Conservatory Centre in Edmonton and then it was on to Calgary for a lovely evening at Studio Bell with alumni and friends coming together to celebrate their alma mater.

Next it was on to Saskatoon for an evening at The Glen at Crossmount. Speaking at the event in his home province of Saskatchewan, Dr. Florizone commented on the Dal spirit that was palpable at each event. 鈥淭his whole tour has felt like a family reunion. It鈥檚 been wonderful to connect with alumni and friends across the country.鈥
