Local club looking to bring Lethbridge residents together
LETHBRIDGE – Meeting new people and developing a social circle can be difficult at the best of times, let alone when you’re moving to a new community.
That’s why Patrick McCullagh founded the Lethbridge Sports and Social Club, launching the new organization in January of this year.
“It was kind of to fulfill a need that I felt, and that I was looking for when I moved to Lethbridge about three years ago, and that is to provide recreational sports and social activities for adults,” McCullagh explained. “They exist across the country, and Lethbridge didn’t really have a service that I was looking for, so I decided to do it myself.”
It did take some time to get the club going and build a solid base of members, McCullagh says they took off in June, with the momentum carrying into July and August. As of now, he says they have over 350 members, involved in a variety of activities.
