WINNIPEG 2017-2018 | YOUR WINDOW OF OPPORTUNIT Y 45 Break away from tired boardrooms and step into rustic stone buildings set amongst 80 acres of greenspace along the Red River. Bring your team-building sessions to life with hands-on activities that put you in the shoes of the fur trappers and First Na- tions peoples that inhabited the Fort in the mid-1800s. A short drive from downtown Winnipeg, Lower Fort Garry is an extraordi- nary National Historic Site that has been a meeting place for over a century. LEGENDARY GATHERINGS Located just north of the city, the Fort's facilities can accommodate gatherings of many sizes and formats. Our modern Visitor Centre houses a conference room equipped with wireless Internet, an LCD projector and adjoining kitchen. The in- house theatre is ideal for video screenings or stage-based presentations. With ca- pacity for 138 people, the theatre can be adapted to your needs with a podium, projector, and sound system. If historic charm is your cup of tea, our heritage buildings are a fascinating venue for smaller meetings or breakout sessions. Most buildings can comfort- ably seat 30-50 people and are equipped with electricity for your 21 st century con- venience. On-site catering is available every- where on site by locally owned Provisions Market and Cafe. Their diverse menu will satisfy the appetites and preferences of your group, no matter the size.
