The city has officially reversed its decision and McCall will be preserved. It is a relief to see our collective commitment produce this result and I am truly grateful that you chose to back this effort. We will remain observant as the protection plans go into effect.

The silence from city officials remains frustrating, yet it serves as a clear indication that our persistence is necessary. I am currently gathering documentation to ensure that when we finally sit down with the council, our case is impossible to ignore.

There is almost nothing in N.E. Calgary as far as outdoor recreation, parks, or green spaces. I know because I have lived here for 18 years. If they close McCall the N.E. will be nothing but an industrial wasteland. Then I'll move out of Calgary for sure!
This is a quality City of Calgary course and I would like to see it kept in operation. Also, other city courses will become more difficult to get tee times at. This may cause many golfers to lose interest in golfing at City of Calgary courses.
Spokane has 4 eighteen hole golf courses for a city of 250,000. Calgary has two for a population of over a million. Traffic on 32 Ave is awful and will get worse if more commercial property is put in. It is ridiculous to even think of closing it. Ware house space is over built.We do not need more
ANY LOSS of green space within our beautiful City is simply a tragedy. If swimming pools and other rec centres get taxpayer dollars, why not golf courses - we have an aging population. The whole proposal needs to be rethought.
Typical City of Calgary tactics, Has anyone looked at the survey? What a joke. I really enjoy the course, the par 3 is fantastic before work. If this was a NW or SW golf course the city would be taking a very different approach.
Stop the madness... we need inner city green spaces. Enough is enough. Stop gold digging for more inner city tax dollars from land tax and let the people live nicer lives. Goofs.
I'm fake.

I live in NE Calgary. My husband loves the McCall Lake Golf Course. I don't want to see the City close down the one place he feels relaxed and energized when he's playing golf on his days off during the Summer months.
