It’s that time of year again; the leaves are starting to change, glowing gold and orange against the backdrop of our classic blue Alberta sky. Once again, we’re layering our knits and pulling out those trusty fall boots. The end of summer is here, but the beginning of fall doesn’t have to be sad because we at Willow Park Village have found the best way to celebrate the up-coming fall season!
Join our boutique shoppes alongside Willow Park Wines & Spirits for their Grand Re-Opening on Saturday, September 12 from 11:00am-4:00pm for an upscale country market benefiting the Women’s Centre of Calgary. With a fashion show, live music, gelato, food trucks, and more, there’s something for the whole family. This open-air market is the perfect way to kick off your fall in style!
So Many Ways to Win!
Let’s talk swag. With the first 50 guests who arrive at Registration receiving a swag bag, there’s plenty of reason to play the early bird! Full of goodies like a $10 voucher for free candy from Sugar Cube (find them at the Fair in their food truck!) and hand lotion from Tip to Toe Esthetic, we can’t wait to see what else is inside!
Not a morning person? Showing us your support by simply coming down and enjoying the festivities will automatically enter you to win either a food or fashion gift basket valued at $1000 each! From shopping sprees to group tastings of foods from around the world, these are prizes you do not want to miss out on. Want more ways to be entered to win? Purchasing something from any store (or local vendor!) and then showing us your receipt at check-in will give you another entry. Donate to the Women’s Centre for even more chances to win!
Affairs of the Day
The changing of the leaves paired with that cool breeze remind us that it is indeed fall, and that means it’s time to get our wardrobes in-season. Styled by Kim Flanagan who will be joined by Leah Sarich of Breakfast Television as hosts for our Fall Fashion Show featuring clothing sourced entirely from WPV boutiques and modeled by local influencers, you will learn what’s hot (or cozy) for fall and update your wardrobe accordingly.
In the mood for some new tunes? We’ve got you covered with a live show from local musician Justine Tyrell – take a listen to some of our favourite tunes from her here:
Don’t forget to check out the newly-renovated Willow Park Wines & Spirits at their Grand Reopening! Partnering with our favourite dairy addiction, Springbank Cheese, they’ll be serving up delicious sips with great cheese pairings that’ll keep your guests wowed for that next party.
Women Helping Women
The Women’s Centre is a staple in the community, providing services and support to women in need in Calgary for over 40 years. Make sure to head over to Stephanie’s Kids and Tip to Toe Esthetics to check out their specially created packages that you can purchase and gift to those in need.
