Here’s a few snaps from our Ladies Happy Hour Celebration @modernsteakca last week! 🍸✨ Hosted by the wonderful Kathy Oberg and Pam MacInnis, this pre-party before the @bildcr Holiday Reception in Calgary was a fantastic way to kick off the festivities. A big thank you to everyone who joined us for an afternoon of great conversation and connection. #BILDHolidayReception #CommunityConnections #CommunityBuilding #PlannersAtPlay Lightbox link for post with description Here’s a few snaps from our Ladies Happy Hour...

Our @movember results are in, and we couldn’t be prouder of what our team achieved! 💰 This year, Team B&A: ‘Stache Planning, Design, and Engagement raised an incredible $6,000 for men’s health. 🏃‍♂️ We also moved 125.7 km throughout the month (huge shoutout to Darby and Brian for leading the charge!). While we grew some questionable but very warm (and very stylish) upper-lip masterpieces (swipe for pics 👨🏻) and hit our movement and fundraising goals to raise awareness for men’s health. @movember was about more than that. It was about starting conversations that matter no matter how difficult and showing up for the people we care about every day. Thank you to everyone who supported, donated, or cheered us on. Together, we’re helping make a difference and having some fun while we’re at it. Until next year... stay mo-tivated! 💪 #Movember #MensHealth #StacheStrong #UpperLipGoals #LipSweaterSeason #YYC Lightbox link for post with description Our @movember results are in, and we couldn’t ...

Brian from our Edmonton Studio attended BILD Edmonton Metro’s Luncheon today – Housing the Nation: Development Trends, Issues, and Opportunities. The event featured an insightful presentation on Canada’s housing market trends by Kevin Lee, CEO of @chbanational, followed by a lively fireside chat with Dhruv Gupta of Akash Group of Companies. 🏡 These conversations shed light on the key challenges and opportunities shaping housing development across the country. It was a great opportunity to gain fresh perspectives and ideas for the future of community building! #UrbanPlanning #HousingTheNation #CommunityDevelopment #CommunityBuilding #YEG Lightbox link for post with description Brian from our Edmonton Studio attended BILD...
