The name, Caltaf Relays and our medal design are tributes to our 50 years in existence (2008) as a track and field club in Calgary. The Caltaf Relays was the original name of the Caltaf Classic which is still being held every year in June, normally the Fathers Day weekend. (This year it is June 12, 13 and 14 and entries are accepted from non club athletes as well as club athletes). The medal is also the original design that was used in the Classic in bygone years.
The coaches of Caltaf would like to thank all the athletes who participated and hope to see you next year!
