Our LAAFS (Little AAFS) program is designed for kids between the ages of 4 and 8. LAAFS provides our younger members with fun activities and opportunities to meet friends, develop life skills and have crazy amounts of fun – all within the social recreational environment that is AAFS.

We get it, some activities can be long. That’s why our LAAFS activities are shorter in duration and are geared specifically for a younger age group. We also have a higher staff to youth ratio so we can fully support each member. Anything AAFS can do, LAAFS can do better!

AAFS has expanded to both the North & South edges of the City!

We recognize the need for our fun, recreational, social environment in surrounding areas north and south of Calgary, and offer activities and Clubhouse Nights in Okotoks and Airdrie.

The social and recreational respite that AAFS offers should be accessible to as many families as possible. If you want to experience our fun, youth-driven environment, sign-up for one of our clubhouse nights or community outings like swimming, bowling and movie night!

One of our primary goals is to immerse our kids in the community around them. Over the years, AAFS members have had opportunities to engage in almost every recreational event and activity Calgary has to offer! AAFS takes full advantage of the belief our community is the largest and most dynamic classroom and exploring that the classroom can teach almost any lesson.

Clubhouse Nights are one of the oldest and most longstanding programs at AAFS. Throughout the year, every Thursday night, we hang out at one of our Clubhouse locations. Themes for Clubhouse Nights vary week to week; but include video games, board games, Halloween or holiday parties. Some nights we base our evenings on current movies and trends, perhaps a Disney Movie Night to celebrate a new film? 

Come out and join us for Clubhouse Night – you’ll be introduced to other members and get a taste for the AAFS Culture.

“Girls Club is inclusive of anyone who identifies as a female or a femme person, or for anyone who doesn’t identify with any particular gender at all” – AAFS Family. 

Our aim with the club is to provide a safe and welcoming space for people in our community who fall outside the “boy” identity. For many youths in our community who are gender-creative or exploring their gender identity for the first time, we’ve thought a lot about changing the name of Girls Club to be more inclusive. fueled by our members’ ideas and creativities specifically geared towards our female members, and the activity is facilitated by female staff. Because we do not have many female members, there is no age restriction on joining any girls club activities.
