Celebrate Calgary Neighbour Day with us!

 

We are excited to partner with Regal Park and host our second annual Block Party in the Renfrew Community.

We invite you to join us as a volunteer. Please see the volunteer role descriptions to get a better idea of where you might best be able to help.

We also encourage you to plan some time to enjoy this event as a guest. We don’t expect you to work all day! We suggest you plan to attend either for the morning (9:00 am - 12:30 pm) or the afternoon (12:30 pm - 4:00 pm). This will allow you some time to help with setup or clean up, do a volunteer shift in the area of your preference and spend some time enjoying the party! You are of course welcome to stay for the entire day.
