Parks Canada and Abegweit First Nation are teaming up to offer wedding and event services at P.E.I. National Park and the Island s historic sites.
Tara McNally MacPhee, the visitor experience manager for P.E.I. National Park, said demand has increased in the past few years for weddings and events at Parks Canada sites on the Island. We want to connect [people] to P.E.I. National Park and have that lifelong connection, said McNally MacPhee. However, the demand has grown so much that it got to a point where we really didn t have a whole lot of resources left to manage it effectively.
If you've had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, you're probably itching to get back to some of your favourite activities.
