Giddy up! We're officially 4 weeks away from the BCAA 10th Annual Charity Golf Tournament.

What started as a community fundraiser has grown into a signature event that brings together local businesses, community leaders, and supporters for a day of golf, networking, and giving back.

We still have:
• 10 golfer spots remaining
• Silent auction items needed
• On-course hole sponsorship opportunities available

This year's tournament proudly supports:
• Airdrie Boys & Girls Club
• Airdrie Food Bank
• Airdrie & District Hospice Society

Every golfer, sponsor, donor, and volunteer helps make a difference in our community.

Join us on Tuesday, July 7 at Woodside Golf Course as we celebrate 10 years of impact.

Connect, learn & share among in-person or virtually.

📍 Peer Support Session for Family & Friend Caregivers

Join us at the Airdrie Public Library for a meaningful peer support gathering created for family and friend caregivers to connect, learn, and share experiences in a supportive space.

🗓️ Wednesday, June 10, 2026
🕙 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
🏛️ Airdrie Public Library — Program Room 5
📌 805 Main St S #100, Airdrie, AB T4B 3M2

This session will feature honest, lived-experience conversations from:

Heather Lucier, Caregiver Ambassador and 2026 Caregivers Alberta Caregiver Advocate Award recipient, will share her personal experience of caring for her daughter through ALS. Heather offers a grounded, real-world perspective on what it means to show up day after day as a caregiver, including the challenges, the small moments of connection, and what she has carried forward from that journey.

Johnna Lowther, Author and Director of Programs and Services at Caregivers Alberta, who will gently guide us through the topic of end-of-life conversations—something many caregivers find themselves navigating without a roadmap. Drawing from her book Through the Eyes of Dementia and her work alongside caregivers, Johnna will offer practical insights, reflections, and space for questions.

Together, the session will create an environment for caregivers to step out of daily demands, share what they’re carrying, and connect with others who understand. It’s a chance to feel less alone, exchange ideas, and leave more connected with the community around you.

Everyone is welcome to attend in person if you’re able to join us at the library.

💻 Virtual option:
If you are unable to attend in person and would like to join online, please contact Matt Salopek, Communications Coordinator at Caregivers Alberta at [email protected] to receive the Zoom link.

Resources available to support a child with medical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional challenges.

If you support a child with medical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional challenges—whether you’re a parent, grandparent, sibling, foster or kin caregiver—you are a caregiver. And you are not alone.

The Alberta Children's Complex Care Collective for Caregivers brings together trusted resources, information, and supports designed specifically for caregivers of children with complex needs—so you don’t have to navigate this journey by yourself.

If you’re interested in learning more about the resources available or if you have questions about the collection, we’d love to hear from you.
