Welcome to the NRTA Weekend Miniature!

This miniature is designed to promote the current events for the week! This smaller addition of the normal

NRTA Blastout is perfect for the coffee room or communal office space, without having to print the entire

NRTA Weekend Wanderings. It is important to realize, however, that this is only one piece of the weekly

NRTA Weekend Wanderings.

This Miniature also has ACTIVE Hyperlinks on events. If you see anything highlighted in blue and underlined,

this is an active link. Curious about an event? Click the event to go to the NRTA Website for greater details.

For more details about upcoming events and other stories from the many tourism destinations in the

County of Newell, please consult the Weekend Wanderings. The NRTA hopes that you find this information

useful to your weekend outings. If you have any events, questions, comments, or concerns about the

information you see in any NRTA positing, please contact William Slenders at:

slendersw@countyofnewell,ab.ca

Thank you and we hope to see you very soon at many of these great events!
