Saturday Night House Warming Party I (Christy) recently bought a condo in Sundre and Saturday night seems to be a good time to break it in with all my out of town friends! Nothing too crazy since it is a condo I have to respect my neighbors but after polo on Saturday night everyone is welcome to come on over until 11pm at which time those who want to keep the party going can walk down the road to Swamp Donkey’s and carry on! (2km ish)
