BIG COUNTRY SENIOR SPORTS SOCIETY ALBERTA 55 PLUS ZONE 2 PROVINCIAL GAMES IN LEDUC AUGUST 21-24
We are just in the process of finalizing all of our entries to the provincial games. So far, we have one hundred and forty registrations and hope to get a few more before the deadline which is fast approaching. Almost half of those entries come from Foothills and Rockyview Counties so we have a very good representation from our two areas. Right now, Zone 2 has about 370 members which encompasses people from Oyen to Banff and from Olds to Cayley, excluding the City of Calgary, which is Zone 3. Alberta 55 Plus promotes sports and recreational development of people who are 55+ and sponsors activities to support physical and mental health and promotes social benefits for a better quality of life. Next year is an off year with no big games, but there will be a few stand-alone provincial events. We hope to have a lot of fun games all over the zone to promote our over thirty sports and leisure activities and attract more members. In 2027 there will be Winter Games in Grande Prairie and Summer Games in Fort McMurray leading to Canada Games in Winnipeg in 2028. If you are over 55 years old, consider joining our organization and participating in the many varied activities. For a complete list of what we have to offer go to alberta55plus.ca.
