Longest Day of the Year - Raven Mad Daze
When the sun is high in the sky all day and all night, Yellowknifers go raven mad. Street sales, live bands, and plenty of finger food keep everyone hopping till well past midnight. Just when you think the sun has disappeared, it pops up again and its time to go boating, or tee off at the Midnight Sun golf tournament.

Midnight Sun Golf Tournament
A Yellowknife Golf Club annual event, sponsored by Canadian North Airlines. The first flight is at midnight and features a special guest. Then you contend with thieving ravens, sand fairways and astroturf greens. Great prizes include trips for two on the airline. For information: http://www.yellowknifegolf.com/Default.aspx?tabid=58
