Organizers of the Calgary Stampede say the show will go on “come hell or high water.”
Crews are working to ready the flooded grounds for the opening of the Calgary Stampede, which president Bob Thompson says will run as scheduled, July 5-14.
“We have pumped millions of gallons of water from our facilities, scraped the mud from our tarmac, commenced the clean-up of our park, all to welcome guests from around the world,” he said.
