Geocache Description:



Calgary Parks 100 Project - Calgary Area Cachers teaming up with The City of Calgary Parks

 

 

 

Established in 1935, redeveloped in 1992, and upgraded in 2008, Connaught Park is a beautifully designed space in the Beltline community. The new benches, tables, walkways, and plaza are open to the public.

 

 

Park Features:

  • benches
  • picnic tables
  • close proximity to cafe's, restaurants, apartment buildings and downtown businesses
  • free 2 hour parking
  • ideal for small gatherings

A committee of representatives of the Beltline community, local businesses, and The City of Calgary Parks decided to retain Connaught Park's passive function, but to improve the park's quality to make it more attractive, to better serve local residents and shoppers, to provide space for events & public art, and to discourage the present negative use. The work was funded by the Enmax Legacy Parks Program and is part of the City's plan to improve all of the parks in the Beltline.

 


Celebrating Calgary Parks 100th Anniversary!
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 then we have placed these 100 caches in 100 parks around Calgary. These caches have some cool swag and trackables when placed, so make sure to find them as soon as they are published.
