INTRODUCTION:
The prairies can get really cold in those winter months, so I'm not surprised that Calgary has a great community of people who want to get extra close to each other for warmth and everything else. I was always a fun and flirty person, and it took a couple short relationships to realize that I needed someone who felt the same way as I did about openness and sharing when it came to sexuality. Fortunately my partner and I are on the same page and finish each other's sentences and everything else.
But finding other people to engage with was a bit of crapshoot when we hit the bars and clubs in the Beltline neighbourhood. It wasn't until we actually went online and met some people on some swinger message boards that we found out about the Calgary Adult Playground Club. Checking out the website turned us on a lot, and we submitted our membership application (which was easy), and arrived at the club and met the staff and was given an overview of the club goals and rules and a tour. Everyone was extremely kind and friendly, and we felt relaxed very quickly.
Once the other members arrived and the night began, it was the beginning of a great change in our relationship, and since then we've gone to many of these events, sometimes just to dance sexily with each other, and other times to meet some amazing couples and people to have a lot of fun in the more private rooms in the back area of the venue.

ABOUT:
Being a member of the Calgary Adult Playground Club has transformed my partner and I's social life for the better. Entering into the swinging community can be a bit stressful, since it's a big jump from just looking and chatting online, but the club has existed in Calgary in various forms for over twenty years now, so you know that they've figured out the best way to have some discreet and dirty fun among consenting adults.
Like every kind of good relationship, the club is built on trust between the organizers and the members, and it's to provide a fun, safe, and private environment for some really exciting and intimate sexual adventures. There is one location they use regularly, which is located in a quiet, semi-industrial area, but some events take place at large venues, where the address isn't announced until closer to the day. We really appreciated how they made sure out privacy was essential, as it made it easier to relax and have fun once we were able to go inside and shed our inhibitions and daily worries.
The first few times I went there with my partner, I was wondering if it would be like one big sex party, but it's more like a social gathering that becomes more erotic and intimate as the night progresses. And the most important thing is positivity and fun. The rules of consent and comfort are strictly enforced, and the staff does a great job at making sure everyone is having a good time.
