CBC Radio's The Homestretch will broadcast live on location at the Banff Public Library on Thursday, March 13, as part of CBC/Radio-Canada's ongoing partnership with public libraries, known as Collab.
From 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., the public can attend the special broadcast — free of charge and no ticket needed — while hosts Chris dela Torre and Jenny Howe focus in on some of the bigger issues affecting Banffites, with stories from those living in surrounding communities.
Banff-born musician Amelie Patterson will perform live. Other special guests include Banff Mayor Corrie DiManno, Banff Public Library director Sarah McCormack, Banff and Lake Louise Tourism's vice-president of destination development David Matys, and more.
Thursday's conversation will feature information on the new CBC Banff bureau, which will cover the Bow Valley and the national park, including Canmore, Lake Louise and Kananaskis.
Attendees will also hear from residents on what they love about their community, why they choose to live in the mountain town, and what they're most concerned about for the future of Banff.
For those who can't attend in person, listeners can tune in live to 99.1 FM in Calgary or use the CBC Listen app.
