Tennis Court Spring Renovation Update
With funding help from The City of Calgary and the Capital Conservation Grant and in partnership with Parks Foundation Calgary, the SCA is moving forward with this project.
You can help too! Our partnership with Parks Foundation Calgary allows the SCA to accept donations for this project through Parks Foundation Calgary and they will issue tax receipts. All donations must be made payable to Parks Foundation Calgary. The link to donate is below and on our website at www.scacalgary.ca.
Donate: https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/ParksFoundationCalgary/sportsother.html.
You can also send donations to Parks Foundation Calgary, 255 – 13 Ave SW, Calgary, Alta T2R 1N8. Cheques must be made payable to Parks Foundation Calgary. Indicate on the cheque that the donation is for the SCA and make sure your cheque has your contact information on it for tax receipt purposes.
The SCA cannot issue tax receipts for donations made payable to the ‘SCA’ – donations must be made through Parks Foundation Calgary if you want a tax receipt. Donations are open to residents, retailers, and businesses.
TELUS is also supporting this project with a donation to include pickleball lines in the renovation of the tennis courts and offering to help support our rinks with a donation to offset costs. TELUS is truly a good neighbour and the SCA appreciates their support.
If you have a business and would like to donate to the tennis court project, you will not only receive a tax donation receipt but there are also opportunities for advertising on the tennis court fencing and rink boards. Reach out to the SCA Office at [email protected] if you are interested.

P.U.P.P.Y (Pick Up Pooch’s Poo Yourself)
With over 120,000 dogs in Calgary, the amount of pet waste in our city can quickly add up if owners aren’t picking up after their pets. The City’s P.U.P.P.Y. program focuses on keeping our city pet-waste free and promotes responsible dog ownership.
The scoop on dog poop
Dog waste can be harmful to people, pets, and the environment if not picked up and disposed of properly.
- It often contains E. coli and other harmful bacteria, such as salmonella, that can cause serious illness in humans.
- It can transmit parasites, including tapeworm and roundworm larvae, that can lead to brain, eye, and other human organ damage.
- Its high-nutrient content creates “hot spots” causing nearby grass and plants to burn and discolour.
- It can contaminate lakes, rivers, and other water sources when carried away by rain or melting snow.
- It attracts mice, coyotes, and other wildlife to urban areas.
- It does not absorb into the soil, so the risk of spreading its harmful effects can linger for years.
