*NUMBER CHANGE*

If the sentence is singular, change it to the plural; if it is plural, change it to the singular.

My sisters’ friends went to various city parks to participate in the Canada Day celebrations. At some parks there were speeches by dignitaries. At others, there were special children’s events, complete with games, clowns, and face painting. Wherever they went, there were happy, flag-waving crowds of proud Canadians.

Good try, Eagle! You missed the first one, though: The singular possessive of sisters' is sister's.
