Trico Centre celebrates 39 years in the community in 2022!

The new year will see Trico Centre for Family Wellness (Trico Centre) celebrate its 39th year of serving the community, as well as mark the 20th year of its partnership with local homebuilder and naming sponsor, Trico Homes.

A commemorative celebration event, to be held on January 27, 2022, at the well-loved family facility on Bonaventure Drive SE, will mark the renewed partnership.

Trico Centre is a non-profit, community-operated fitness and wellness facility located in south Calgary that operates with a unique community partnership model, working directly with 34 South Calgary Community Associations.

Apex set to introduce Creekstone in 2022

Apex Land is set to enter the rapidly developing area west of Macleod Trail in south Calgary, as they introduce their newest Calgary community – Creekstone.

As part of the greater Pine Creek community, Creekstone puts residents close to amenities, necessities, and major transportation routes.

“With Creekstone, we have made it easier than ever to plant your family roots, grow, and thrive in the city’s southwest,” says Apex Land Administrator, Michelle Wilken. “From park and playground spaces to future amenities like schools, commercial areas, and everyday essentials close by – you’re perfectly situated in Creekstone.”

The first phase is set to introduce front-drive homes and laned duplex models from Brookfield Residential, Excel Homes and Truman Homes. Showhomes are expected to open in May 2022. For more information, go to creekstonecalgary.com.

Excel Homes in Chinook Gate

Excel Homes celebrates the New Year with the opening of four new showhomes in the vibrant Airdrie community of Chinook Gate.

In January, Excel will open the four-bedroom Newbrook front-drive garage (the first showhome of this model that they are building); the Windsor laned home (one of their most popular models); and the Willow and Magnolia duplex models (both have three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths and also the first of their kind to be built).

These are some of Excel’s newest models which feature the latest in design trends for 2022. “They include floorplans and upgrades we’ve never showcased before,” says Excel Homes Digital Marketing Specialist, Breanna Brookwell. “They offer thoughtfully laid out and spacious floorplans which provide a generous amount of living space for families, and the option to add a developed basement suite or loft.

“Chinook Gate is a very popular community for us, there is a lot of interest in Airdrie; it is a rapidly growing and developing area,” she adds. Visit the new Excel showhomes in Chinook Gate at 355 Chinook Gate Close or go to excelhomes.ca for more info.
