Dear Farah,

It was lovely to chat with you after the storytelling workshop at the Cedar Grove library last week. I am delighted that you, Omar, and Layla have decided to come along on our Winter Carnival Day at Hillcrest Heritage Village. When it comes to the sheer variety of things to see and do, no other open-air heritage site in the province can match it. Counting your family of three, our group now stands at fourteen parents and the same number of children, exactly the turnout we had hoped for.
