Confederation Park 55+ Activity Centre

WHAT WE DO

Since 1973, Confederation Park 55+ Activity Centre has played a vital role in the lives of seniors in NW Calgary. Our mission is to enhance the lives of older adults. Today, over 1000 members from across the city connect through ongoing educational, recreational and social services programs.
Due to COVID regulations our doors are temporarily closed to the public. Our programs will continue to be offered on-line and our meal program is ongoing.

COVID-19 UPDATE

We will be closed today, September 17th as per current health restrictions announced Wednesday, September 15th by the government. We will reopen Monday, September 20th and will be implementing the "Restrictions Exemption Program" requiring proof of vaccination to continue operating as usual. You must show your proof of vaccination at the door to enter the centre. If you have medical reasons for not being vaccinated or not wearing a mask, you must present a record of that as well as a record of a rapid test done within 72 hours. Masks will be required while moving around in the centre and we will maintain social distancing in our activity classes. We will continue cleaning protocols and urge you to use the hand sanitizer frequently.
We are happy that our classes can still run as scheduled and we look forward to seeing you all next week!

VACCINE DRAW

We are announcing that we are offering a draw for 4 prizes of $50 CPAC Cash, which can be used towards any class, club, food or event offered at the Centre. Anyone who is double vaccinated and can provide proof of vaccination is eligible to enter. The last day to enter will be Oct 28th.

WE HAVE MOVED

We just wanted to let everyone know that the construction of the downstairs office and boutique has been delayed by a few weeks, so there may be some noise during classes for the next little bit. Please be patient while we get through this adjustment period. It will all be worth it in the end!

LIFT CAMPAIGN UPDATE

The lift fundraiser has been a wonderful success. We surpassed our goal amount! A sincere and heartfelt thank you to our members for your generous donations. We hope to have the lift installed by the time we open in our new Centre. The phone calls, where we got to reach out and hear our members’ concerns and questions, have been invaluable. Through these conversations, we were able to answer any inquiries and allay any concerns.
