Calgary Parks 100 Project, celebrating Calgary Parks 100th
Anniversary!
Calgary Area Cachers teaming up with The City of Calgary Parks
Dept.
The Calgary Parks 100 Project is a partnership between the City
of Calgary Parks, and the Calgary Area Cachers to celebrate Calgary
Parks 100th anniversary. Calgary Parks has supplied cache
containers and swag for 100 caches, and the we have placed these
100 caches in 100 parks around Calgary.
Kincora Park is one of the newer parks in the city. The
community of Kincora was built around the ravine leaving it in it's
natural state for residents to enjoy. Park spaces bring nature to
the city through trees, grass, open spaces, wildlife habitat and
quiet places. Increasingly, research is demonstrating the
psychological value of parks in improving the attention and memory
functions of the brain and how important they are to the quality of
urban life. (Berman, 2008, Psychological Sciences v.19, issue
