Earth Day
To celebrate Earth Day, the Calgary Concept Store will be showing the Planet Earth Series DVD's through out the day! Stop by and watch for awhile, and marvel at the wonders of our beautiful planet!
Inspired enough to want to give back? Ask our adventure specialists about travel with our Voluntours, operated by Planeterra and Gap Adventures,
Voluntours provide travellers with an opportunity to give back while spending time with one of our Community Projects. From helping protect endangered sea turtles in Costa Rica, to lending a hand at a pre-school in South Africa, you will be making a real difference in the lives of local people.
A $2 suggested donation for Planeterra will be collected at the door and matched by Gap Adventures (dollar for dollar) to be put directly to one of our projects around the globe. For information on these projects, visit www.planeterra.org
Wonders of Thailand
Join us and discover Thailand's treasures with Gap Adventures. If you'd like to cycle to ancient ruins, ride an elephant through the jungle, spend the night in a hill tribe village or simply delight in the wonderful food and beaches, Thailand should be on top of your list!
A $2 suggested donation for Planeterra will be collected at the door and matched by Gap Adventures (dollar for dollar) to be put directly to one of our projects around the globe. For information on these projects, visit www.planeterra.org
