A Message from our Executive Director

Thank you to everyone who supported our programming and events in June. As previously mentioned, we no longer have access to the Calgary Lawn Bowling side as they have begun their 2026 operations. We have adjusted our programming to accommodate as best as we can with the reduced space.

Thank you to our Ward 6 City Councillor John Pantazopoulos for joining us for a Learning Café and for joining us multiple times at our facility in your first 8 months on council. Thank you also to Chartwell Retirement Residences for supporting our Bowling Stones Fun Lawn Bowling Tournament and The Edward for supporting our Canada Day lunch. Canada Day lunch was in June because it falls on a Wednesday and we are closed.

We had a wonderful breakfast at Grey Eagle Casino with 20 of our volunteers as an appreciation for all they do. Our volunteers are the best and very much appreciated.

Although we have reduced our programming to reflect summer holidays, etc. we do have many special events planned for July. Our Canada Day Raffle Draw will be made on Canada Day. At time of writing the jackpot is over $4,200. Proceeds will go to support the upgrade of our mechanical infrastructure. We appreciate and thank you for your continued support.

Our next fundraiser event is our Stampede Bridge Tournament on Saturday July 4^th. Please contact the office for more details.

The Hellenic Seniors of Calgary is hosting a Stampede Pancake Breakfast at Bow Cliff on Tuesday July 7^th. All Bow Cliff members and Super Members are welcome. Breakfast with entertainment is from 9am until 11am (breakfast while supplies last).

The 50^th Anniversary cruise in February was such a big hit, we are organizing a Panama Canal Cruise. The 11-day cruise is scheduled for January 2^nd, 2027. There is only one solo room left at the special price. Contact the office for more details.

Please welcome our summer student Angela Zhang.

Wishing everyone a wonderful summer and safe holiday travels!
