🎓 Wrinkle Ranch University Is in Session!

Rocky View Lodge residents are taking part in a variety of Wrinkle Ranch University classes.

The first class focused on engineering, with residents learning about trusses, beams and structural design. They were then challenged to work in teams to build the tallest structure possible using Styrofoam balls and sticks.

It was a close competition, but Luke, Helen and Maureen managed to build the tallest structure before time ran out! 🏗️

A Day of Learning for Rocky View Lodge

Rocky View Lodge residents took a bus trip to Blackfoot Crossing near Cluny to learn more about Blackfoot history, culture, and the significance of Treaty 7.

The visit offered an opportunity to deepen their understanding of First Nations peoples and the history of the land they call home.

A generous gift—and a great reason to celebrate at Big Hill Lodge!
