2024 Garden Party a Wonderful Success

Our summer party held June 22nd was a wonderful success – thank you to all residents who attended!  We (about 400 of us!) all enjoyed the luxury of a beautiful summer afternoon and evening – playing games, watching the kids play on the enormous bouncy castle and interacting with the animals in the petting zoo.  A great educational opportunity!   Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped to make this happen – from the initial organizing, shopping, set-up, bartending, running the games and making sure everyone got fed! Last but not least – thanks to those who hung in to help with the cleanup!   A big thanks again to the Storwick family in sharing the use of their industrial barbecue AND for their generous donation of the top notch burgers!  Thank you to all those “kitchen angels” who brought salads and desserts!  Many of our residents were raffle winners and went home happy with gift cards and gift baskets – all donated by our neighbourhood sponsors.  Special thanks to our “Donors of distinction” – Ben Knopp Real Estate Corp, the City of Calgary and Dr Kristina Zakhary.  Thank you for supporting us in such a meaningful way.
