We invite you – and each of your neighbours – to join the Winston Heights-Mountview Community Association by getting this year’s (2017/2018) residents membership FREE.

Your community association does many things for you and your neighbours. For example, we:

• Host community events such as the Stampede BBQ, Community Recycling Day and the Santa Claus Breakfast;
• Work with the City to comment on proposed developments and to address traffic issues;
• Keep you informed about your neighbourhood via a monthly newsletter, e-newsletter, Facebook and Twitter; and
• Maintain the Community Hall, which includes four rentable halls, basketball hoops and the hockey rink for your use.

Over the past couple of years your community association has also built the:

• Community Garden;
• 7th Street Playground;
• Two demonstration Rain Gardens;
• Centennial Garden;
• and we are currently working with the City to finish the Munro Park redevelopment.

There are many benefits to holding a membership in your Community Association:

• Discounts or free admission to community events or programs; and
• Finding out about, and having your voice heard on, issues affecting the neighbourhood.

Sweeper Stolen from the Winston Heights-Mountview Community Association Rink

At approximately 5am on Saturday January 14, 2017 a sweeper (Ariens 24” sweeper, model 920014 with an NCE Enterprises Inc. decal) was stolen from the Winston Heights-Mountview Community Association Rink.  This is used by community volunteers to help clear the ice at the outdoor rink.  The Calgary Police Service has been notified but any information to track down the sweeper would be great!

In the bottom picture you can see a stock photo of the sweeper.  Additionally, we have included 2 pictures from our security cameras, of a black truck of interest, driving into and then leaving the storage area:

Above: Truck driving in with decal clearly visible.

Below: Truck driving out, with what appears to be the sweeper in question high lighted in red.

If you have any information you can contact us directly at 403-681-9142 or by email: communications@winstonheights.ca or reach out to the Calgary Police Service: 403-266-1234

 

Playgroup!

I would like to thank all the moms, dads, grandparents and caregivers who make our playgroup a cozy entertaining and fun place to be with our little ones! We recently grew the toy collection at the community centre to make the children’s experience that much more exciting. Please come and check it out every Monday morning from 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

There will be a Christmas break from Dec. 23rd – Jan. 8th. We will pick up playgroup starting on Jan.9th.

We would also like to inform you that we plan on doing a regular ‘deep cleaning’ on the toys. We would really appreciate any of you who join us regularly to lend a helping hand. The cleanings will occur partially during the playgroup hours and on the second Monday of each month.

We thank you in advance for supporting the playgroup and our fabulous community!

If you have any questions, or would like more information, please contact Sarah at playgroup@winstonheights.ca.

Role requires some heavy lifting. Please call or email Caleigh at 4035896828 or Caleigh.rabbitte@gmail.com to apply for this role.

Looking for feedback

Currently we have 7 sandwich boards. We are looking at replacing them, but before we do, we would love some feedback regarding location placement!

We are looking for a list of locations that would be suitable or better suited than the current locations. Suggest as many as you would like (current locations may still be the best spots, but we want to know what you think)!
