CKE INDOOR PICKLEBALL PROGRAM

Registration is now open for the January to March 2025 CKE Indoor Pickleball Program!

The Indoor Pickleball Program is for CKE pickleball players of all skill levels and is intended to be recreational, otherwise known as ‘social play’.  We have limited indoor capacity and the program is for CKE Residents only.  Current CKE Community Membership is required.

The session runs Friday January 3 to Monday March 31,^, 2025.

Program Times

• Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings with two sessions each day:  9:00 – 10:30 am and 10:30 am – 12:00 pm.
• Each session is limited to 6 participants.
• Weekly sign-ups are facilitated through SignUpGenius.
• Participation in a WhatsApp Group Chat is encouraged to communicate with other members in the Program.

If registration numbers warrant it, we will arrange additional sessions from 12:00 – 1:30 pm on Mondays and/or Wednesdays.

Sign-up for the upcoming week is on Sunday afternoons.  If by Monday morning, there are still open spots in the schedule, we allow participants to sign-up for an additional spot.  However, if you plan to play twice a week on a regular basis, we encourage participants to register and pay for two spots.

CKE has some of the best courts in the city. There were refinished in 2021 and we want you to come out and play!

At this time we do not allow bookings or rentals of the Courts by CKE residents or anyone else. The 3 exceptions are: the schools in CKE neighbourhoods may rent the Courts, we book the Courts off for group lessons, and we book the Courts off for the CKE Pickleball Drop-In Program & related events.

CKE Courts Access

Calgary Young People’s Theatre has the pleasure of working with youth ages 4 to 18 all year round through camps, classes and productions. Currently we are offering our beloved Act 4 class at CKE for youth in grades 5 & 6.

This class builds on basic drama skills, but also offers more advanced training for older students. Various techniques will be explored such as intermediate improvisation, voice and movement, characterization, scene development and much more. In both Fall and Winter terms there will be a final presentation showcasing your child’s talent and all the new abilities they have acquired. No prior experience in theatre is necessary – All abilities are welcome!

Act 4 South CKE Location: TBD

New this winter, Run.Jump.LEAD!’s Mom & Me Yoga series will bring moms and their daughters together using a holistic approach to connection and movement. Taught by yoga specialist, Rachel Groen, this program offers a unique opportunity to slow down, create space and awareness, and prioritize special bonding time in a relaxed setting.⁠

Through guided practice you’ll explore both standing and seated postures, flow sequences, dynamic breathing and relaxation activities, and some coveted 1:1 time.⁠

Classes are designed for self-identified girls ages 7-12 and moms/other significant female role models. All levels are welcome.⁠

The CKE Skatespot offers a safe and active social space for people of all ages to connect with others, exercise in, and practice their skill! Obstacles include a quarter pipe, curved ledge, ledge/manny pad with wedge, flatbar with landscape flat gap, bank, and a flat ledge.

To help keep the park safe and clean, a locked supply box equipped with cleaning and maintenance supplies is located at the park. This initiative relies on “key holders” from the skate community to help keep the park clean and free of debris. If you are interested in being a key holder, please contact Calgary Association of Skateboarding Enthusiasts (CASE) – [email protected].

This park is owned and operated by The City of Calgary. Please contact the City of Calgary at 3-1-1 with any issues, concerns, or questions.
