Scenic Acres is located in Calgary’s northwest, south of Crowchild Trail and West of Nose Hill Drive NW, only 14km from the city center. The Scenic Acres area was annexed by the city in several stages beginning in the 1960s. The community’s name is a result of the panoramic views throughout the area. The Bow Valley corridor, the Paskapoo Slopes and the Rocky Mountains are all visible throughout the community. There are also numerous open fields in the area which facilitate community recreational and sporting activities. Scenic Acres also offers quick access to the city’s pathways, as well as numerous shopping centres and restaurants. There is a separate school in the community.
The Scenic Acres community association is also very active. They welcome community feedback in order to improve the programs that they offer. These include dance, aerobics, yoga, karate, Girl Guides, Boy Scouts, and Teeter Tots, as well as a booming sports program that caters to area youth. To promote community interaction the centre also hosts an annual Christmas Craft Sale and Stampede Breakfast. In addition, the centre is host to numerous weddings, parties and family reunions throughout the year. The programs available in Scenic Acres are continuing to expand to meet the needs of residents, and new programs such as a used clothing scale are being met with resounding success. This variety of programs combined with the community association’s willingness to respond to community feedback has allowed Scenic Acres to offer appeal to the interests of the area’s diverse residents.
