New! Crafting Circle
Mondays, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm
in HSCA’s Hearth Room.
The Monday
Knitting/Crochet Circle has expanded to welcome all kinds of crafts—knitting,
crochet, needlepoint, cross-stitch, sketching, calligraphy, and more. Join in
for a relaxed morning of creating, sharing, and connecting with fellow crafters
in the Hearth. All ages, everyone welcome! (Excludes Statutory Holidays.)
Caregiver Connections
There are currently no
scheduled sessions but please connect with Debbie at any time. Connecting with
someone outside of family and friends can help when we are feeling overwhelmed
or just need someone to talk to. If you are a caregiver or want to explore ways
to support someone you know someone who is caregiving for a family member,
please connect with Debbie directly to talk or learn more about available
resources and support in our city.
Chair Yoga (Online and
In-person)
Tuesdays and Thursdays, 10:00
to 11:00 am.
Chair Yoga is offered in
a hybrid model — meaning participants can join either online or in person. If
you’d like to join in-person, you’ll follow along with Sharon on the screen in
the Hearth Room. Space is limited, and there’s some safety info to go over, so
please contact Debbie directly if you’d like to attend in-person. This gentle
exercise class is a great way to stay active and limber — especially as the
cooler months roll in. Come join us! To register or for more information,
contact Debbie at 403-283-0554 ext. 224 or email [email protected].
Cribbage Group
Wednesday afternoons
from 12:00 to 3:00 pm in the North Social Hall.
Join this established
and well-organized group in their new location at HSCA! They play four games,
break for coffee, tea, and snacks, and then play until 3:00 pm. There is a $1
admission fee to cover coffee supplies and a sign-up sheet for snacks.
Each game is $.25, which
goes to the winner, then the winners move to the next table and there is an
extra $.10 for a skunk. Anyone who wishes to play is welcome.
