Links To Information On This Web Site It's time to mark your calendar for Historic Calgary Week. HCW 2009 runs from July 24 through August 3. See the Week At A Glance as well as the Full Brochure and plan to see as many of the over 50 offerings as possible.

The objective of the Chinook Country Historical Society is "to promote a greater understanding of Canadian and Alberta history in Chinook Country for people of all ages." CCHS, in part, promotes its objectives through:

  • A Monthly Program of presentations of historical interest from September through May;
  • Sponsoring books and anthologies that highlight Calgary and Alberta's history

Chinook Country Historical Society is a constituent part of the Historical Society of Alberta. Membership has its privileges. Membership in CCHS includes a membership in the Historical Society of Alberta, discounts at special events, the CCHS newsletter, History Now, the newsletter of the HSA that covers history across the province. The glossy magazine Alberta History is also available to members at a reduced subscription rate.

CCHS publishes a quarterly newsletter for our members. The latest newsletter can be viewed online and past issues back to September 2004 are in the Archives.

Chinook Country Historical Society cooperates with several other organizations with an interest in History. Support these Organizations in their efforts.

Historic Calgary Week is featured in the Summer Festival Guide. Please visit their web site for information on other great events during the summer in Calgary!
