Happy Family Day from WHCA

Unfortunately, the WHCA community center will be closed today for Family Day.  We hope that everyone will take some time to cherish the extra day with your family.  Do something fun, whether outside or in, and enjoy bonding with the family.

Are you looking for Family Day activities in Calgary or area?  There are lots of low-cost and free activities to take part in Calgary.  Here are just some of my suggestions:

Glenbow Museum  – Take some time out of your busy schedule and head to a museum.  Enjoy the serene and quiet surroundings of Glenbow while browsing stunning art and displays.

Olympic Plaza Skating – Is it a beautiful day?  Head outside for some fresh hair and hit the rink.  Perfect for all ages, this fun event will get the kids outside, get their exercise and enjoy what the Calgary community has to offer.

Park & Trail Hike – There are extensive trails and paths within the city.  No matter what location you reside in the city, wilderness isn’t far away.  Get out for some relaxing exercise, fresh air and maybe even family snow ball fight.

Does your family have an annual Family Day Tradition?  Tell us about it.  What other activities are great for Family Day?  Share with our readers and help them have the best day possible.

WHCA will open for regular programs and hours on Tuesday, February 19, 2018
