COME JOINUS FORFUNANDFRIENDSHIP! The PEGG Women’s Club of Calgary began in 1944 and is the longest surviving club of its kind in Alberta. Today the Club boasts a membership of close to 200 and at least a third of the membership is actively involved in organizing events and activities. The Club welcomes women of all ages who are associated with APEGA: practitioners as well as wives, partners, widows and divorcees of active or retired APEGA members. The purpose of the Club is to promote friendship amongst the members through participation in the Club’s many fun and educational events and activities. Each year the Club holds six major events. Underpinning the main events are the weekly and monthly activities of the various sub-groups. In addition, one-of-a-kind activities and excursions are offered throughout the year. We also support the engineering and geosciences professions by donating, annually, two $1,000 bursaries to the University of Calgary benefitting students in the Schulich School of Engineering and Faculty of Science. The 2015 recipients are a 2nd and a 3rd year student, both of whom are in the Faculty of Chemical Engineering. In September we hold a membership registration coffee party and welcome new members. The membership fee is $25 annually and this year’s coffee party is being held at the Silver Springs Golf Club on Friday September 9th.
