Hat Creek is All About Cowboy Spirit

September 1, 2007

Campfire

Like most prairie towns in Alberta, it’s angle parking in Hat Creek and it’s free. There are a couple of parking meters in town but nobody puts any money in them any more. And, nobody minds. Besides, there is plenty of free parking just off 50th Street in front of Hat Creek’s only restaurant, the Golden Lotus Cafe. There is even more free parking across the street from the Community Hall. Hat Creek is also the home of the Cowboy Campfire Festival held in July every year since 1997.
