October 4, 2019. The Filipino Association of Lethbridge, Alberta, together with other ethnic associations and some local businesses in Lethbridge, joined this year’s Northern Lights Festival held at the gym of Winston Churchill High School. It’s an event held to seek understanding of what people from all types of backgrounds contribute to the community. Attendees also asked what events are running throughout the year and it is a great platform wherein Canadians can get to know each other better.
It is an event filled with entertainment from the different neighbouring schools and from different ethnic communities. There were food trucks to fulfill your food cravings like Kona Shaved Ice and Churros. A flu clinic was also held to protect everyone from the flu this flu season.
Here are some of the pictures from the event.
This is a yearly event and we’re looking forward to see everyone again next year! =)
