🏆 Congratulations to our 2026 SACLA Kickball Champions - Team ICE! 🏆

Following last week’s fantastic SACLA Annual Pancake Breakfast & Kickball Tournament, we wanted to take a moment to recognize the team that took home this year’s championship trophy!

A huge CONGRATULATIONS to the team from Independent Counselling Enterprises (ICE) on capturing the 2026 SACLA Kickball Tournament championship! 🥇

ICE joined teams from Ability Resource Association, Cardston Support Services, CORE Medicine Hat, Edenbridge, Peak, Taber Special Needs and SACLA for an afternoon that brought together people from across Southern Alberta for some friendly competition - and a lot of fun.

There were plenty of great plays, laughs and competitive moments throughout the tournament, but what stood out most was the enthusiasm, encouragement and sportsmanship demonstrated by everyone who participated.

Events like this are about much more than winning a trophy. They are about participation, belonging, friendship and creating opportunities for people to connect with their community and with one another.

That spirit was on full display throughout the day.

To everyone at ICE: congratulations on a well-earned victory, and thank you for bringing such tremendous energy to this year's tournament. We hope that championship trophy has found a place of honour! 🏆

And once again, thank you to all eight participating organizations, their teams, support staff, volunteers, sponsors,and supporters for helping make the 2026 tournament such a success.

We’re already looking forward to the rematch next year! 😉

We had a wonderful morning with the first year students of the
Southern Alberta Medical Program (SAMP), University of Lethbridge. SAMP will train undergraduate medical students at the University of Lethbridge and in rural communities across southern Alberta. We were happy to engage with students on disability, rights, accessibility, and the role of service providers. We look forward to continued partnership with these students through their practicum experience at SACLA and the insight they will gain from the experts: the person with a disability.

We are excited to announce what's been brewing at SACLA!
We’ve partnered with Cuppers for our very own brew☕️!

Starting tomorrow you will be able to buy our very own unique coffee blend of SACLA coffee beans. $5 from every bag of SACLA coffee sold (at cuppers or online) will come back to SACLA. These funds will further support our mission to connect communities, cultivate relationships, and create possibilities.

We hope to have this coffee for sale at our upcoming Kickball event (August 19th Lakeview ball diamonds - hoping to see you all there 😉 ), and eventually may even have some coffee for sale at the front desk!

Please feel free to share this exciting news with your network as well!
