Cancelling Earth Hour Event – walk through High Park Zoo @ Grenadier Restaurant High Park
Mar 28 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

UPDATE on EARTH HOUR WALK – Saturday, March 28.

Friends of High Park Zoo and Green 13 have decided that we must cancel this year’s walk due to Covid-19 virus. We were hoping that as it is an outdoor activity it could continue, but with High Park Zoo now closed and the Grenadier Restaurant with restricted hours it is not a responsible thing to do. We encourage everyone to celebrate Earth Hour at home by powering down. We look forward to seeing you next year.
