There’s lots to look forward to at our Stampede Roundup this year. Here are some of the highlights.
Stampede Royalty Visit
Calgary Stampede Royalty consists of the First Nations Princess and Calgary Stampede Princess. We are thrilled to have both Princesses attending our event! CS Princess Brooke Fielding and CS First Nations Princess Margaret Holloway will join us from about 4:30 – 6:30 pm. Margaret will perform a traditional jingle dance at 5:15 pm. This will be a beautiful showcase of First Nations culture. Each year, the reigning Royals share and celebrate Stampede’s western heritage, cultures, and community spirit locally and around the world. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet and mingle with Stampede Royalty!
Bottle Shack Open House – Drop By During Stampede Roundup
Did you know Discovery Ridge has a bottle shack? You don’t need to leave the community to dispose of your refundable drink containers and wine bottles! The Shack is in the parking lot next to the recreation facilities (rink and tennis courts). It’s a beautifully painted sea can adorned with local wildlife. The DRCA uses the proceeds from the bottle shack to help maintain and operate our facilities. Having a convenient way to recycle and support the community is a win-win.
During Stampede Roundup you can drop off your bottles and tour the Shack. Come out and meet Matt who oversees the operations. He’d be happy to have a chat and answer any questions you may have. If you bring bottles, please be sure to either tie them in bags or tape them shut in boxes to keep things safe from breakage and for ease of stacking.
NDHA (Your HOA) and DRCA (Activities and Rec Centre) Membership Table
Stop by and learn about the two associations that work hard to make our community such an awesome place to live! If you are at Stampede Roundup with a neighbour who is not a member of the Discovery Ridge Community Association (DRCA), please bring them by our table so we can share the perks of being a member. Help support the incredible work we do!
Line Dance Stampede
Line Dance Stampede will be joining us once again! Catch their performance from 4:30 – 6:00 pm. Enjoy their foot-stomping line dancing and join in to learn a few steps yourself!
