SUMMARY:Enter the Drag Dragon Calgary Premiere
DESCRIPTION:Hello\, \nI’m writing you from Ottawa – earlier in the year I released my 8th feature film – a Drag-fu\, action\, comedy\, horror\, musical entitled “Enter the Drag Dragon”. The film had its world premiere at the Mayfair Theatre in Ottawa\, where we had line ups around the block and many sell outs. Cineplex is now releasing the film Nation wide throughout the Summer to coincide with Pride festivities in each city across the country. “Enter the Drag Dragon” will be having a week-long Cineplex premiere engagement in Calgary during the week of Friday\, September 1st till Thursday\, September 7th at Cineplex Odeon Eau Claire Market Cinemas (Eau Claire Market\, 200 Barclay Parade SW #200\, Calgary\, AB T2P 4R5) to coincide with Calgary Pride. \nhttps://www.cineplex.com/theatre/cineplex-cinemas-park-lane \nI am hoping to promote our upcoming week long engagement with Cineplex during some CalgaryPride events.

SUMMARY:Pride Hike With Potluck Mountain Meadow Picnic Lunch Hosted By Apollo Outdoor Pursuits
DESCRIPTION:RSVP REQUIRED: Please email ApolloOutdoorPursuits@gmail.com to RSVP  \nWear and show your pride colours!! \nHIKING TIME: Approx. 2.0 hours round trip (approx. 45-60 minutes of hiking each way plus approx 1.5 hours potluck picnic lunch and breaks) \nDIFFICULTY: EASY Yes this trail is “easy” in that the distance is short and the elevation gain is modest. However\, its still a hike and you will be walking uphill for the entire distance. Rest assured we see children and seniors on this trail regularly so it is very doable for anyone who does not have mobility issues. Beginners are most WELCOME on this hike! If you are not sure please email Todd to discuss \nTRAIL DESCRIPTION: This is an EASY SHORT uphill hike to a mountain meadow where we will have a good ole fashioned PRIDE POTLUCK PICNIC in one of the most scenic locations in Kananaskis country! Please bring one item in your backpack to share with the group\, it can be anything (ex fruit\, chocolate\, cheese\, candy\, jerky\, snacks\, homemade baking\, chips\, beverages\, salad\, etc). Make sure that everything you bring for the picnic (blanket or towel or jacket or similar to sit on\, food\, drink\, etc) can fit into your backpack (don’t plan on carrying additional handbags\, etc). Although it’s a short hike it’s still a good 30-45 min walk in and it is uphill. \nAnytime of year just driving to the trailhead is marvelously scenic. Because it begins so high this trail rockets you into the alpine much faster than most. After a very brief ascent through the forest\, the trail enters a cirque and contours meadow slopes below the soaring peaks. The meadow is a wildflower haven that contrasts sharply with the surrounding austere scree and talus. If we are lucky we may see marmots\, pikas\, and the elusive white-tailed ptarmigan. \nDOGS: ok but caution on this trail due to elevation gain. If your dog is used to this degree of activity they are welcome. No exceptions dogs must be leashed at all times…make sure its physically appropriate to bring fido along – we have had a dog paw injury and exceeded the physical limits of another dog on previous hikes. \nTRAIL NAME AND TRAIL HEAD DIRECTIONS WILL BE EMAILED TO PARTICIPANTS WHO RSVP \nQUESTIONS AND INFORMATION: Please email ApolloOutdoorPursuits@gmail.com
