Violinist Evan Pyne and Ehrentraud Moser performed during the Once Upon An Alphabet Storytime at Banff Public Library on Saturday (Aug. 31). Pyne and Moser visited the Banff Public Library as part of their performance at the Banff International String Quartet Festival (BISQFest).

“Events like this keep the local music scene alive."

“We do share this landscape with wildlife and it’s our responsibility to know how to recreate in the area with wildlife, especially during this sensitive time for the elk.”

This year's funds will go to the Rocky Mountain Community Relief Fund, established by the Banff Canmore Foundation, to support Jasper's wildfire response and recovery efforts.

“These stats are a testament to needing more support from the provincial and federal governments when it comes to how people get to Banff and how they move through the townsite and the national park,” said Mayor Corrie DiManno.

“This is no easy task, but this is why we’re hoping that with the help of Canadians and people who know and use this area, we can come up with a really good plan that will be best for this place.”
