The Devon, Alberta Parade<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Devon, Alberta<\/strong> recently celebrated the Devon Days Parade<\/em>. Many turned out on this beautiful Saturday to enjoy unique floats showcasing local businesses, groups, and organizations in Devon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located on the banks of the North Saskatchewan River, Devon offers an abundance of beauty with its breath-taking river valley and that indescribable small-town feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
