The pandemic has drastically changed our daily routines. But that hasn’t stopped Calgarians from coming together in support of their neighbors and local businesses. The 2021 Virtual Hike for Hospice Calgary allows you to continue this trend by pledging your support, as an individual or as a part of a group, to the Hospice Calgary community. The 2021 Virtual Hike for Hospice Calgary can be done anytime and anywhere. You choose when and how to walk your 5 kilometres - whether outdoors at your local park, on your favorite trail, or indoors on a treadmill. You may also decide to make it a family activity or head out solo. The choice of how and when to participate is up to you. Registration has already started and the hike runs May 1 to 10. Hospice Calgary hopes to raise $100,000 for Calgary’s grieving families. Register early to receive a 2021 Virtual Hike for Hospice Calgary T-shirt and early-bird registration prices.

Register yourself, friends, or family for this year’s virtual Grant Thornton Race for Pace. Every little superhero who registers by May 31 will receive a Superhero Supply Package loaded with fun and engaging activities! All participants will complete their run or walk at their leisure between June 4 and 20, and are encouraged to share videos/photos on social media and tag Pacekids Programs.

The woods are lovely, dark, and full of animals! Locked Zoo: Fab Forests is a outdoor-only escape game that will have you using wits and getting your steps in while solving challenging puzzles with a team of clever friends. Your team will explore select areas of the zoo to find the clues, solve the puzzles, and save the day! There's plenty of animals to see along the way, beverages (including adult ones!) will be available for purchase and you can pre-order a delicious dinner box. The challenge will not be timed. Proceed at your leisure! Book tickets for your household team - and pre-order delicious dinner boxes! In honor of Cinco de Mayo, food and beverages for this event are Mexican-themed! Adult beverages, including margaritas, will be available for purchase.
