Hello Evergreen residents!
Happy summer to all. Stampede time this year was special for Evergreen. Our community came together in true western spirit for the Calgary Evergreen Community Association’s first-ever Stampede Breakfast and it was a tremendous success. We welcomed over 2,400 attendees who joined us to celebrate with great food, fun activities, and unforgettable community spirit. We partnered with 16 businesses to hold this event and had 60 volunteers helping us. A sincere thank-you to all of our event partners, volunteers, attendees, and Calgary Evergreen Community Association team members who made this event possible.
