March 19, 2020
Lethbridge has a lot to offer, however, sometimes the weather or other situations prevent us from getting out and exploring all the wonderful things there are to do. Luckily we have taken out some of the guesswork for you and compiled a list of things to do in Lethbridge from the comfort of your own home.

Watch a Movie With Friends!
Now I know what you might be thinking — that would go against what everyone is telling us, we are supposed to be social distancing. And you'd be right we should all be staying at home to keep everyone safe, and you still will be! Google Chrome has come up with a way that we can all stay in our own homes but still have movie nights with our friends and family. Netflix Party is a Google Chrome extension that allows multiple people to watch the same movie or TV show at the same time in different locations with the ability to pause and play and even has a chat box so you can talk about what is happening, so no one misses a second of the action.
Lethbridge and District Historical Society
For the history lovers — Lethbridge and District Historical Society have hundreds of historical posts about Lethbridge with amazing photos on their Facebook Page.
