Recreation Newsletter and Program Calendars
August 2020
Greetings residents and family members,
And just like that, we are in the month of August. This summer has looked quite different compared to last summer, but that does not mean we are not going to enjoy the sunny days ahead!
There will be no recreation programs on August 3, 2020, Heritage Day. SkyPointe is starting the month off with the ‘Good Ole Hockey Game’ and cheering on the Calgary Flames as they start their playoff season. On August 4th, it is C of Red Day and all residents, staff and visitors are encouraged to wear red or their favorite Flames gear. All facility TV’s will be tuned into the game in the evening. Resident calendars are labeled with a Flames ‘C’ to indicate which day the flames are playing their first three games.
With all this beautiful weather, a friendly reminder to practice safe sunning; sunscreen, sunglasses, light clothing and staying hydrated. If residents are going out for community walks remember to practice proper hand hygiene, avoid heavily crowded areas and practice safe, social distancing.
Please, take a look at our August newsletter (below) and program calendars for upcoming programs and activities. If you have any questions or concerns, please, contact (587)619-6317! Or stop by the recreation office. Our general office hours are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday.
Yours sincerely,
Marlee Dukart
Recreation Therapy Manager
