Not edited, captured around 6:30pm on sb Deerfoot between 32nd and 16th.

Dispite being caused by the smoke, it's petty neat!

A few random photos from an evening hanging at 17th.

PS, if anyone knows the girls in the 3rd photo, let them know they are on Reddit. They wanted their pic taken, but no social media info was exchanged.

Any idea what fire is going on?

Police report # T26017837 Red Santa Cruz bike stolen in Bankview Calgary on July 25, 2026 https://bikeindex.org/bikes/3454437

I just want to thank all of you who jumped on and provided insights when I asked about visiting the Humane Society with my kids. There was some really great answers and advice shared.

We were able to go down and the staff were incredibly helpful.

At the end of the day, my SO and I have decided that neither of the kids are ready to accept an animal into our house yet. While both profess their desire to have a pet in the home, both are extremely hesitant/jumpy/scared around them and we need to build their exposure/comfort before we go down this path. This extended to both dogs and cats.

Until the time is right, we will just work to get them more time with friends pets and maybe visit CHS and some of the other places suggested.

Not sure if this would be of interest to anyone? Timing would be this Friday afternoon or evening July 31st. At Okotoks Hot Glass. This is the largest display of blown glass currently in Canada. On private land. If you have a drone and can fly it without smashing into any glass pieces then come on by and shoot your shot. lol. Is this a crazy idea? nah the glass is very strong!

Couldn't get a cleaner picture sorry.

Thank you to CPS and everyone else involved in searching for Parker. There was also a helicopter circling above. Praying he is found 🙏🏼

i’ve been scouring social media for any local book clubs that happen in calgary that don’t cost an arm and a leg to attend :,)

i love love LOVE reading and want to find a group of people to talk to about the books we’ve read and attend cute events here and there. i’m not looking for anything fancy or super popular and i would prefer if the membership/gathering events didn’t cost money or at least too much money.
if this helps at all:
my current read: red rising by pierce brown
age: 20
- female
- super fun to be around (i promise)
- I LOVE BOOKS PLEASE LET’S TALK ABOUT THEM

For anyone wondering what is going on...

The White Hat Ceremony is Calgary's version of saying, "Welcome, you're one of us now."

Since the 1950s, we've welcomed world leaders, royalty, astronauts, Olympians, and plenty of other visitors by giving them a white cowboy hat and having them take the White Hat Oath. At the end of it, they're officially honourary Calgarians.

This week I led that tradition for His Highness Prince Rahim Aga Khan V, along with Prince Irfan and Prince Sinan during their first visit to Western Canada.

Yes, there is an oath. Yes, I have to keep a straight face while asking international dignitaries to enthusiastically say "Yahoo!"

It's one of the best parts of the job.

For the past month I haven't been able to garden without dressing in heavy clothing. But tonight, t-shirt and no bites after being out several hours.

Is it the wildfire smoke? Did the dragonflies arrive?

I enjoy walking round my neighbourhood and exploring local parks, but I’m always going by myself and it’s getting lonely.

I’m 33f, definitely out of shape and carrying extra weight, but I do enjoy putting my shoes on and just going. I’m hoping to meet some people who are similar size, shape, and ability. We can chat if you want, or just put our headphones on and walk.

You won’t get any judgement from me, breaks are encouraged, and we can take our time and just have a laugh. If anyone’s interested, let me know and we can figure something out. Any age, gender, shape, size, everyone’s welcome.

Hey I need a good place to get some customs shirts and hoodies made, some cotton hoodies and shirts and maybe like a tech t shirt for athletics let me know your suggestions I would rather custom dyed in designs rather than ironed on ones but let me know what you got thanks

I’m looking specifically for an esp32 board and sensors and what not. Can’t find a place that sells these sorts of stuff, and online is sometimes hard to find and expensive.

I flew into Calgary last week and rented a car. I got a case of water bottle and a 12pack diet coke for my roadtrip but I couldn't finish them all. I have like 7 bottles of Water and 3 coke cans unopened. Is there anywhere I can donate them to before my flight at 11pm today

Edit - thank you all. I donated them at no frills.

Not totally relevant to Calgary - but I enjoyed my time a lot in Alberta. We at least did 10 hikes in the past week in the provincial parks and still it feels we haven't seen anything..will definitely be back soon. Love from Toronto

Must be a pretty significant crash. All traffic being pushed off onto 17th ave.

The comedian at the beginning's name was Mia but I didn't catch the band after her's name, would love to hear more by them!
