We are halfway through the summer and there is still some more sun-soaking fun to be had!

Stampede was a hoot and a half!

It was a pleasure to host another Stampede breakfast for the community this year. It was great to see all of you who came out to partake in the activities and showcases we had planned. Special thanks to our sponsors – Wholesale Club South Calgary and Vivid Eye Care Meadows Mile. A special thank you as well goes to our team of volunteers who brought this event to life, including the Stampede Welcome Wagon volunteers who brought the western spirit to our event! There is no time like Stampede, and your contributions make the effort worthwhile. Thank you!

A Successful Grassroots Soccer Season!

Our inaugural community grassroots soccer season was a roaring success! 93 children enrolled to play this year, with more seeking to register after the enrolment deadline. A huge shout out to our parent volunteer coaches. They really stepped up in a big way for the kids and were integral in making the season fun, engaging, and encouraging for the children to try out new skills and build their confidence in the game.

Special thanks to our sponsors and supporters – Energize Health South, Alberta Tennis Centre, and Calgary City FC, with special mention to the Lakeview Community Association soccer program. We cannot wait to kick off a new season next year!

Youth Drop-in Program

The youth drop-in pilot program was quite successful that we will be picking it back up in September.

If you know kids between the ages of 10 to 17, or you are one yourself, come join our youth program! Stop by the ARC to hang out with friends and make new ones during an evening packed with games, music, snacks, and more! If you have ideas for theme nights or activities, please let us know by emailing [email protected]. Our intent is to provide our community’s youth demographic a safe and fun place to go for positive engagement and to make friends.

Movie in the Park – September 6

Acadia’s movie night event is kicking off a month of Movies in the Park in coordination with Fairview Community Association (September 13) and Willow Ridge Community Association (September 20).
