What a busy summer it’s been in your Finance department! Currently, I am hunkered down in the (air-conditioned 🥵) office completing our year-end processes and getting ready for the annual audit. 🧮🤓📲 I’m also very happy to note that last season, our community was comprised of over fifty-two thousand members who joined seventy-five AGF clubs! That’s fantastic, and I cannot wait to report on the rest of our operations at the AGM in October. In the coming months, several of your AGF staff will be jetting out to attend conventions that will bring fresh ideas to our federation. I am looking forward to the CPA National Conference in Québec City to learn about leadership, data integrity, AI, and the state of the Canadian Economy. Next month, Robin McDougall and Carolyn Foster are attending the USAG National Congress in Phoenix to study problem solving, program updates, and various ways to add value to our clubs. Finally, our casino takeover this month at the ACE Casino Airport in Calgary was a resounding success. 🎰💰Another big thank you goes out to our volunteers. They all worked some long hours and late nights; we truly appreciate your efforts! In the coming weeks, we will find out how much money we earned for their clubs and our sport. Keep cool everyone, and we’ll see you next month! 😎

Robin - The best thing I've done this summer? Soaking up the sun, water, and family time on Georgian Bay, and tucking a little extra sunshine away by booking a beach getaway for November. 🏖️ Kate - The best thing of the year, let alone the summer, was getting to meet my baby niece in person! 🍼 Haleigh - The most fun thing I’ve done so far this summer is celebrate 11 years with my fiance! We got to try a new ramen restaurant, and it was absolutely delicious! 🍜❤️ Shortly after, we also announced our upcoming elopement for this fall. We can’t wait! 👰♀️ Will - Been golfing every weekend since July has started. You know what they say, consistency is key. ⛳️ Craig - I’m pretty proud to have hit my personal goal of 40 chicken wings at all-you-can-eat lol 🍗😋🫃 Jackie - Had a wonderful time hanging out with our baseball family and watching the boys win all their games during Provincials, including the Championship. ⚾️ Jacinda - Made a trip to Red Deer for a lazy river day. I would recommend going on a weekday as we did! I wasn’t as long as I would have hoped but I definitely had fun! Would recommend! ☀️ Carolyn - I spent the first 3 weeks of my summer in Europe and I honestly couldn’t pick any favourites. It was all beautiful! ✈️ Ray - Golfing and tennis with my two boys!! ⛳️
