Look past the standard four walls, and discover the many impressive venues that will make your event soar to new heights, and wow your delegates with experiences they just can't get anywhere else. Rustic charm meets cowboy cool at this prairie-situated ranch 25 minutes outside of Winnipeg. Feel the prairie wind in your hair when you ride the Prairie Dog Central Train, the vintage 1800s steam train that takes your group to the ranch (which just may be held up by horse-riding outlaws... wink wink.) The ranch's 4,000 square foot main hall is charming, featuring wood-beamed ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace that gives off that toasty aroma, and a vast assortment of pioneer artifacts and antiques adorning the walls. ANDERSON'S HITCH 'N POST RANCH You simply won't believe the audience who will watch your delegates mix and mingle at Assiniboine Park and Zoo's Journey to Churchill. Up to nine playful polar bears and several seals call the facility home, and will surely swim and play above and around your guests, much to your party's amazement. Across the park, nestled amongst the trees and overlooking a verdant or snow-covered landscape is the Qualico Family Centre, an ideal venue for hosting events of all sizes, where the architecture is a real conversation piece – that's if you can take your guests' eyes away from the angular floor-to-ceiling views of the duck pond and surrounding lawn and forests ASSINIBOINE PARK S E T T I N G S Mike Peters Assiniboine Park Conservancy www.meetingswinnipeg.com | Tourism Winnipeg | 35
