Every July, Calgary kicks into high gear for the “Greatest Show on Earth”, and we’ve got the perfect way to start your Stampede day: a hearty, Hy’s-style breakfast served with a whole lot of heart.
On Wednesday July 8th from 8 to 10 AM, join us outside Hy’s Steakhouse on 8th Avenue for our Annual Stampede Breakfast. It’s a much-loved tradition in support of the Calgary Firefighters Burn Treatment Society.
For just a $10 minimum donation we’ll serve up our famous Prime Beef Hash & Eggs, juicy orange and watermelon slices, fresh OJ, and piping hot coffee or tea. It’s the perfect way to get ready for a day of rodeo, rides, and revelry, and all for a cause that hits close to home.
Every dollar goes directly to support the Calgary Firefighters Burn Treatment Society, helping improve care and recovery for burn survivors and those with severe skin injuries.
“We’re proud to be part of one of Canada’s most iconic celebrations,” says Vincent Leroux, General Manager of Hy’s Calgary. “And even prouder to support the important work of our city’s firefighters through this special event.”
So, grab your hat, bring your appetite, and join us for one of the most delicious, and meaningful, Stampede traditions around.
Cost: $10
