Once a year the whole neighbourhood lands in the same field for the same reason. Three inflatables (a preschool unit, a 40-ft obstacle course, and an 18-ft dual-lane slide), face painting, pickleball trial play, yard games, and free hot dogs, pop & drinks for SHCA members (not a member? Sign up at the door for $20). Four hours of running into people you've been meaning to say hi to.

Forecast for Signal Hill, updated daily. Source: Open-Meteo.
A free block party for the whole neighbourhood, the same ten-odd things we do every year, because they're the ones that work.
HEADS UP — the three inflatables, face painting, pickleball, and yard games are all confirmed. Fire truck + police car are still pending the City's approval. Page updates as the remaining pieces land.
One preschool unit, one obstacle course, one giant dual-lane slide, booked with AstroJump for the full afternoon. Toddlers have their own zone; the bigger kids get two different big-kid attractions so the lines actually move.
No. 01
Western-themed bounce + interactive unit just for the little ones. Inflatable bull to ride, soft obstacles to climb, mini-slide. Weight-limited so the big kids stay out, toddlers can actually use it.
No. 02
Race-style obstacle course, climb through multiple obstacles, scale the wall, drop down an 18-ft slide at the finish. The most active unit; expect kids to do this one again and again.
No. 03
Pure thrill ride, climb to the top, two side-by-side lanes drop you 18 feet down. Twin lanes mean two kids ride at once, so the line moves fast. Adults welcome (and the brave ones will go).

📍 Inside Signal Hill Superstore
Where Aging Is Celebrated. An award-winning grassroots organization reducing and preventing social isolation among older adults across Calgary through free weekly in-person and virtual programming. They recently piloted a free Seniors Sewing Club in Signal Hill — soon to become a weekly program.
At Neighbour Day: info on free programs for older adults, plus FIFA-inspired activities for families celebrating Canada hosting the 2026 World Cup — an origami jersey-making station, a FIFA foosball competition with official World Cup mini prizes, and a kids' space to pick up a few soccer tricks.
Handcrafted gelato made fresh in small batches, every day — no shortcuts. "Nani" means grandmother across many South Asian languages, and that's the idea: gelato made the way a grandmother would, blending Italian technique with Asian and South Asian flavours. Expect a few combinations you won't find in any freezer aisle.
At Neighbour Day: find their table on the vendor row, between the bouncy castles and the BBQ. A cold, fresh scoop for a warm June afternoon — bring the kids by.
