Get a TASTE of West Hillhurst this September

Looking to have a fun, adults-only night out where you can drink some cocktails, sip some wine, and sample some of Calgary’s best food? Well, we’ll save you a seat for the WHCA’s annual premier fundraiser, TASTE of the Neighbourhood!

Some of the vendors we’ve lined up for this years event include Sunterra Market, Midtown Kitchen, Amato Gelato, Rig Hand Craft Distillery, The Barn, Village Brewery, Springbank Cheese Co, Burwood Distillery, Osteria Chef’s Table, Bravara Coffee, Apex Predator Brewing, Kensington Liquor Cellar, Vinestyles, Get Smoked Southern BBQ and more to be announced!

If sampling food and drink wasn’t enough to convince you, this year we’ll also have a fun-money casino courtesy of our friends at Aces R Wild! This is a great excuse to play some high-stakes, casino-style table games at no cost to you. At the end of the night, our chip leaders in various games will be taking home prizes, so bet big and play often!

We’ve also put together our best silent auction to date, with generous donations from Calgary businesses such as 9-Round Kickboxing, the Calgary Roughnecks, Bowtown Music, Calaway Park, and more!

For the first time ever, we’ll be hosting a Wine Survivor at TASTE. To join the pool, bring a bottle of win and $10 entrance fee and YOU could be the one to take home half of the total wine pool at the end of the night.

So join us Saturday, September 28th from 7pm to midnight for a wonderful evening of fun, friends, and food. We hope to see you there!

WHCA Casino Fundraiser is THIS WEEKEND!

Howdy community members! Looking to give some of your time to help out the community? Maybe you made a New Years resolution to volunteer more? Or maybe you just want to be a part of a fun & exciting evening at a casino while getting in on a free meal! Well if any of those apply to you, consider volunteering for our Casino Fundraiser at Cowboy’s Casino!

We are just a few volunteers short of a full roster and ensuring this event’s success. We have received an extremely gracious outpouring of support this week, so lets continue the trend into the weekend.

If you’ve never done a casino night in the past, worry not. The WHCA and Cowboys highly value and appreciate our volunteers to the utmost degree, and we will guide you along the way. Staff is extremely helpful and will be more than happy to help out and answer any and all questions you may have.

If you’d like to give a little of your time on Sunday and Monday, May 5th & 6th, you can volunteer with us by calling 403.283.0464 ext 6, emailing admin@westhillhurst.com, or fill out the online form on our volunteer page.

Volunteer for Casino Night!

The WHCA will be hosting a Casino Night Fundraiser at Cowboy’s Casino the evenings of May 5th & 6th. In order for the casino to run smoothly and for us to make the most of our time there, we require a number of volunteers for supervising, running chips, cashiers, and more! There is a variety of shifts available for both the Sunday and the Monday nights, and at the time of this post we’ve managed to fill around half of the spots. If you’d like to see what positions and times are available, please stop by the office or the fitness club, give us a call, or send us an email and we will be happy to find you a role that fits your schedule!

We’ve tried to make the sign-up process as smooth as possible. All we’ll need is your name & phone number via either phone call, email, or form. You can also find a sign-up sheet in both the office and at the fitness club front desk. If there is a role/time taken that you had wanted, please feel free to sign-up as a backup. We understand that life happens and commitments fall through, so don’t sweat it!

Visit us at 1940 6th Ave NW, call 403.283.0464 or email admin@westhillhurst.com for more info.
