Zonita Haggis | Vice President
Zonita Haggis. Born and raised in Labrador. Was tired of waiting for her Hogwarts letter so she attended university in Newfoundland and obtained an engineering degree. Moved across the country to Calgary where she met and married her forever love, Barry, who is a CKE OG. Spends all of her free time hanging with her husband, rescue dog, and baby boy. Can be found embracing the long winters by warming up with spicy foods but her guilty pleasure is grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup. Favourite pastime is organizing anything and everything! Loves CKE because it reminds her of home and is her “small town” in a big city.
Matthew Watt | Treasurer
As a farm-kid from east-central Alberta, what Matthew wanted for his family was a place where neighbours cared for each other, and where everyone pitched in to make the community better. Fortunately, Matthew found this in the CKE, a place he and his family have called home the past 7 years. Professionally, Matthew is CPA having worked in industry in various accounting capacities for the past 10 years.
If not running his kids to an event or working around this house, Matthew spends his time either watching football and soccer, playing cards, golfing, going for a jog, having some laughs with his wife and friends, cooking, or trying to get the family skiing.
Jim MacLean | Secretary
Jim MacLean and his wife Corinne moved to Kelvin Grove in 1994. They started with a rental,

one. All three homes are within about 400 feet of each other! They have three grown daughters,
all of whom attended Chinook Park Elementary and Henry Wise Wood High School.
Jim grew up in Nova Scotia and moved to Calgary to join Chevron’s Land Department after
