Happy New Year Ward 6,
As we start the new year, I am invigorated by all the priorities that the City is focusing on – affordable housing, public safety, and transit. I am committed to investing in our city to drive it forward. Keep up to date and informed on our progress by signing up for my monthly newsletter at Calgary.ca/ward6.
Things To Do This Winter
Explore Calgary Parks
Winter makes it possible to enjoy Calgary parks in a different way than during any other season. Many cold-weather park activities are also free, with minimal equipment needed. Only in winter can you skate on outdoor rinks, marvel at beautifully lit ice trails, play Crokicurl, and ride an ice bike in our parks. Plan an afternoon at your local community park or golf course snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. For more ideas, visit https://www.calgary.ca/events/winter-city/activities.html.
Experience the Magic of Chinook Blast
Calgary’s ultimate winter festival returns February 2 to 19, 2024. This year’s event will warm up our city with a celebration of community, culture, and civic pride, where the best of Calgary’s art, music, theatre, sport, and recreation will be on display.
