Events, News, Sports and Recreation

Our organization was honoured to be involved in the closing ceremonies at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts located in Mohkinstsis (Calgary) thanks to our partnership with Curling Canada. We presented beautiful beaded medallions made by local Siksika Nation beaders and blankets to the winners of the tournament.

Jennifer Jones, renowned gold medal Olympic Curler who has represented Canada on the National stage numerous times announced her retirement. We gifted her a traditional pendelton blanket to thank her for her contributions to the sport of curling and for inspiring young women and girls across the country.

Thank you to our partners for this historic moment and having us walk alongside your team at the closing ceremonies. Congratulations to the 2024 Scotties Tournament of Hearts winners!

Big Dreams, Big Smiles: Zach Whitecloud Makes Special Visit to Treaty 7

A special afternoon at Chief Old Sun Elementary School on Siksika Nation as First Nations Health Consortium proudly partnered with HEROS Hockey and the Calgary Flames to bring Stanley Cup champion and current Flame Zach Whitecloud to visit students and staff.

Weekend of Connection Through Sport

On March 13 & 14th students from three First Nations communities traveled to Calgary to take part in a unique curling experience. Through a floor curling bonspiel at WinSport, they learned the game, competed together, and built new connections all while representing their schools and communities with pride.

Impact Grows When We Collaborate

Healthy Horizons made a generous investment to ensure young people have access to sport and proper equipment. Sport Central continues to steward those resources and place gear directly into the hands of kids who need it most. We helped bridge that connection in the community so everyone involved could be recognized and celebrated.
