Over the years, the CHCA has hosted many events to create a strong and vibrant community but none of them would have happened without our volunteers.  On behalf of the whole community, we want to say Thank You.  Let us treat you to a fun night loaded with camaraderie, cheer, appetizers and some fun activities – pub style.

We are looking for a one more dart board and if anyone has a shuffleboard table in their basement… we’d love to borrow it for some friendly competition.

If you’ve ever lent a hand at one of our events, Casinos or helped with the Dog Park issue, please join us on Feb 9, 2019 at 7:00pm in the Hall.  You’re more than welcome to bring a guest.

If you have any questions or can lend some items, please contact us at social@cambrianheightscommunity.com or (403) 284-1175.

Whatever your age or fitness level, muscular strength and endurance are key to a healthy lifestyle. Whether it’s lifting children, grandchildren or the beloved family pet; climbing stairs or walking through an airport on your way to somewhere amazing; hauling groceries, or a large bag of dog food; squatting in the garden; sitting at the computer…. It all takes muscles and stronger is better.

Fun and Fearless Fitness is back this Fall with a 6 – Pack of Fun and Fearless Fitness Sessions, focussing not only on building muscle strength and endurance but also on building strong neighbour connections; all with a large dose of fun!

The thrill of living in a northern climate is certainly testing our hardiness this weekend.   Even though the cool weather will still be with us on Saturday, we are excited to bring the community together to celebrate Fall and enjoy good food, music and fun.

Pablo and Gray will roast our pork and lamb outdoors but we will bring the music and a few different activities indoors.  Unfortunately, we may not be able to use any of the inflatables in the cold, wet, weather so we are trying to find alternative fun for our younger guests.

Music and activities begin at 3pm
Dinner at 5pm
Music and mingling continue from 7-9pm

Thank you to the people who have already signed up to lend a hand.  We could still use a bit more help, so please go to the link below to see how you can pitch in:

Dress warmly.  We look forward to celebrating this crazy start of the season with you.

More information on our website www.cambrianheightscommunity.com or email us at social@cambrianheightscommunity.com or call Jodi at 403-276-4242.

September 22^nd is fast approaching! We are pleased to announce two inflatables sure to be a big hit with the kids: a bouncy house and an obstacle course.  We’ll also have Bocce, horseshoes and volleyball. If anyone wants to bring their softball equipment, there are two diamonds at our disposal.

We could use some help at the event. Pitching in is a great way to get to know your neighbours. You can sign up for a task using the link below, and we’ll have a sign-up sheet at the event as well.

https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0C44ACA92EAAFB6-asado

Nights get cooler this time of year, so please dress accordingly. If we get rain, we’ll still slow roast outdoors, but we’ll bring the stage and modified activities inside the Hall.

If you’d like more information please contact us at social@cambrianheightscommunity.com or call Jodi at 403-276-4242.

See you on the 22nd!

September 22 marks the beginning of Fall; come celebrate the season with friends and neighbours over delicious food, music and fun. Too often we forget to take the time to enjoy the simple pleasure of enjoying the company of others. So walk over to the Hall to relax, lend a hand, or share your musical talent at our first ever Asado and Open Mic.

If you’re not familiar with the term asado, it is a gathering involving an open fire, fresh food and neighbours. People lend a hand in the preparation and grilling – a great way to get to know each other while creating a beautiful meal for all to share.

Our stage welcomes all musicians. No matter if you’re just learning the ukulele, or you’re a seasoned singer, or play in a garage band – feel free to share your passion with us.  There will be a sign-up sheet at the stage to play up to 4 songs at a time.  We’ll provide the basics so you can plug and play.

Fun and games in our community fields – bring your gear for a game of softball, enjoy the bouncy house (thanks Glenn), mini golf, or challenge your neighbour to a game of bocce or horseshoes.

Before the cooler temperatures have us behind closed doors again, come out and enjoy a gathering of friends and neighbours.
