For golfers, a bad day on the golf course is better than a good day at work. Golf is a challenging but rewarding game that brings people together; it is amazing how four hours on the golf course can help you get to know someone better or make a new friend.

September 1, 2021, marks the beginning of Calgary Academy’s 40th year celebration. To kick off our year of celebration, Calgary Academy will be hosting a special anniversary golf tournament on Monday, September 27 at Bearspaw Golf Club.

Planned and coordinated by an incredible group of staff volunteers, this event builds on CA’s long history with the golf game. Past coaches, players, and a few local celebrities will tee off at Bearspaw Golf Club and duel for the top spot’s bragging rights.

If the excuse to reconnect with old friends, experience a newly-renovated course, and just surviving COVID-19isn’t enough reasons to sign up, this tournament will also support the school realize two very important fundraising goals – the purchase of a new Knights Bus and continued fundraising for the Calgary Academy Parents Association Bursary fund.

The money raised at the tournament will go towards the $100,000 purchase price of a new bus, which will be used to transport students and staff to and from sporting events, field trips and community engagement opportunities.

A 50/50 draw will be held in concert with the tournament to help raise funds for student bursaries.

Before we know it, September will be upon us, and we very much look forward to having the opportunity to celebrate with our students, staff, families, and community. We can’t wait to see you on the course!
