Calgary July 2022 Events

Happy Canada Day, Calgary!

This Canada Day we are celebrating how far we have come as a country, those who have fought for our freedom, and each and every one of you who strives to bring more good into this world and embody what it means to be truly Canadian. Canada is not perfect, and celebrating Canada Day does not mean we are celebrating or negating it's imperfections; it means we are lifting up the good, and will continue the work to make Canada a place people are proud to call home. All of us here at Team Ken Richter are very proud to call Canada home! 

July is always a busy month for Calgarians. Not only is it Canada Day and the kickoff to the summer, but Stampede season! This year the Calgary Stampede goes from July 8 - July 17. It is…

Free Activities To Do Over Winter Break

With Christmas over, Calgarians are buckling back down and tightening their purse strings. With this in mind, here are some fun and free activities to enjoy in the wintertime: 

• Kananaskis Hiking: Calgary is at the doorstep of the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Whether you are a seasoned climber or a novice hiker, there are trails for all skill levels and age groups. Places like the grotto offer an incredible peak into the indigenous hieroglyphics, and there is even a cold war bunker you can hike up to in Heart Creek. You don't have to scale a mountain, but it is nice to get some fresh air and enjoy everything the mountains have to offer. Pack a lunch and some snacks and enjoy!
