Vandalism (not cool!)
A reminder to all the community to report any vandalism in our community to 311 specially to report city property damage. This includes graffiti. For more information (http://www.calgary.ca/CSPS/ABS/Pages/Bylaws-by-topic/Graffiti-recording-reporting-removing.aspx).
Deer Ridge Ice Rinks
The rinks are located at the south-east corner of Don Bosco School field. Parking is alongside Deermont Way SE. Thank-you to the volunteers for efforts resealing the rink surface in preparation for the season!
Although it seems we skipped Fall this year and went straight to Winter, the high sun still has in impact on the efforts to set the ice due to reflection off of the boards. For this reason, flooding of the rinks typically starts closer to Winter Solstice. If you are planning to visit the rinks be sure to check first if they are ready.
We are looking for volunteers to help out at the ice rinks from the end of November to the beginning of March. If you have some spare time and would like to help out, please contact us at [email protected]
