HIP HIP HOORAY…IT’S MOTHER’S DAY!

We could write a novel, nevermind a blog post, about how AMAZING Mothers are, and since there is little chance that we will be able to do Moms everywhere justice we’ll keep it short and sweet!

Moms, of all kinds, of all shapes and forms, both young, old and everything in between…thank you for giving us your love!  You really do make the world go around.

The team at The Crossing looks forward showing our love for all of you at our sold out Mother’s Day Brunch this Sunday!  What can we say, we ♥ Moms:)

Happy Mother’s Day!

Community Connection!

Out here at The Crossing it’s all about connection, and what better way to connect than to do so through our community!

This week the cozy main floor of Remington House played host to our friends and neighbours in what is turning out to be an annual community dinner.  It is a great way to stay connected to the community, share information, and visit with friends.  Not to mention the opportunity to show off in the kitchen, just a little bit, which no one seemed to object to!  As promised Chef Ghanam and his team prepared nothing short of a feast, which left all of us eyeing up the comfy couches post indulgence.

We were so pleased with the turn out as sometimes we don’t always get to visit as much as we would like. When you are sitting on 145 beautiful acres it is a bit of a walk to borrow a cup of sugar.

As the evening progressed tours of the buildings were provided which allowed for us to share the numerous projects and upgrades that had been completed in the past year.  I am happy to report that all of the hard work is paying off and we received glowing reviews!

It was a fantastic opportunity to break bread, share stories, and have a few laughs!  The local community means so much to The Crossing and we look forward to continuing to develope opportunities which create connection and give back.  The conversations from this dinner allow us to get a better insight into what the community needs and how we can be a part of that.

It was a great night where the hugs outnumered the handshakes and The team at The Crossing would like to thank everyone for coming; we look forward to seeing everyone again soon!

The Art in Heart

One can not come to The Crossing without noticing the magnificent scenery, and although you may think this is a sole reference to the stunning natural surroundings, you are mistaken! 

Not to be awed only by the exterior qualities of the property, The Crossing emminates beauty from the inside out!  With a love for art and a very close relationship with Reflections West Art, based in Calgary, we are honoured to be able to share a beautiful pieces of art with our guests. The Crossing is happy to provide a venue for these magnificient pieces to hang in light filled rooms allowing their true beauty to shine.  Many of our guests come to experience connection with nature but many walk away with a new found, or enchanced, connection to art. The best part is that most of the art featured at The Crossing is available for purchase!  Is there any better way to capture your stay, I think not!

Art really does have a connection to the heart in more ways than one.  The Crossing considers itself extremely lucky to be part of greater Cochrane; a community with a huge heart and one that supports and cultivates local art.  This weekend the Cochrane Art Club will be hosting its 53rd Show and Sale, if that isn’t art with heart than we don’t know what is!  Click on the link below to learn more about this weekend’s festivities and take time to enjoy the view both inside and out!
