Crestmont Kids Day Mini GolfCrestmont Kids day was forced inside by mother nature, but that didn’t stop the fun. A special thanks to all who helped out with planning, setup and teardown of the event. Also thank you to Const. Damian Price, Const. Dylan Harris and Simon the Safety Bear. Thank you to the Al Azhar Shriners for their epic BBQ trailer to heat up our Spolumbos sausages and to the Calgary Fire Dept. for stopping by with their impressive trucks and firefighters that made the kids smile from ear to ear. Also a huge thank you to Qualico Communities for their generous donation that helped us make this day possible. Thank you to the City of Calgary who is alway such a great supporter and provided the mini-golf, giant Jenga blocks and other games. Finally, thank you to our members and guests for supporting the CCA and renewing your membership each year. Without your support it would be much more difficult for us to do what we do. Here are some photos from the day:
