Park asks to 'Save the Big H'
Calgarians rallying in support of Heritage Park landmark
Heritage Park is hoping Calgarians love their letter.
The towering "Big H" that has welcomed visitors to the park since 1975 is in need of repair, and the park is asking people to pitch in to conserve the aging consonant.
Calling on Calgarians to donate money and post their memories of the Big H to Twitter, Instagram and Facebook under with the hashtag "#SavetheBigH," Heritage Park is hoping to raise $200,000 to replace the cracked logs and crumbling base.
