Hello neighbours!
As we welcome March, longer days and (hopefully) warmer weather are just around the corner! This month brings plenty of reasons to celebrate and enjoy everything Calgary has to offer. We’d like to remind you that this year we will be having a municipal election. The SCA is non-partisan, we do wish to promote democracy. Keep an eye out for news and do your best to learn about your candidates.
March Holidays and Celebrations
International Women’s Day (March 8) – A time to recognize and celebrate the incredible contributions of women in our community and beyond. Consider supporting a local women-owned business or attending one of the many events happening around Calgary. If you are a women-owned business or know of someone in the area, please let us know so we can share this information on our social media pages!
St. Patrick’s Day (March 17) – Get your green on and enjoy the festive spirit! Whether it’s grabbing a pint at an Original Joes, Pizza Project, or New Camp. If you’re staying in, there are lots of green-friendly crafts.
Spring Equinox (March 19) – The official first day of spring! It’s a great time to start planning your garden, take a walk in one of our beautiful parks, or simply enjoy the longer daylight hours. Gardening is a great way to beautify your space and exchange some ideas with neighbours!
Things to Do in Calgary This March
