• Volunteers to help with family games/connection after-noons with our new Syrian community residents and their children. Arabic speakers would be greatly appre-ciated but all volunteers are welcome.

• Summer youth engagement volunteers to help with outreach activities for children in Huntington, Bedding-ton and Thorncli� e/Greenview.

Home. It’s where we live. It’s the feeling we get from freshly folded laundry in our bedroom. It’s playing the piano and singing with friends and it’s shared moments over dinner with family. It’s feeling healthy, eating well and enjoying the community we savour with other great people.

It’s looking forward to a little exercise and some laughter at the lounge afterwards.

Welcome to your life at Evanston Summit. Welcome home.

Oystershell Scale Disease: Affecting Calgary’s HedgesBy Christine Deschamps

Oystershell Scale Disease can a� ect over 120 species of trees and bushes, including Cotoneaster hedges and Li-lac hedges. City of Calgary entomologist Jim Watts has informed the public through the media, of the spread of the Oystershell Scale Disease that is currently in the "crawler stage,” from late May to early June. The vulner-able crawler stage is short lived, lasting only a week to ten days. It is also the period when the insects easily spread to new plants. During the insect’s crawler stage, the plants can be successfully treated with insecticide soap or horticultural oil, with advice from your local gar-den center. For more information, please visit:http://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/awol-win-ter-threatens-calgary-hedgeshttp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/oystershell-scale-spreading-through-calgary-hedges-1.3089264

Huntington Hills SchoolHello from Huntington Hills School. We are a small school with a big heart of approximately 240 students grades K-6. The past few months have been � lled with wonderful opportunities to enhance our student’s learning by spending time within our community and beyond. Our grade 5 and 6 students were fortunate to spend four amazing days at YMCA Camp Chief Hector connecting their Science and Social Studies curriculum with leadership, teamwork, and the great outdoors. All of our students took part in the Calgary Parks and Rec-reation 6-day swim program in early April at Thorncli� e Aquatic and Recreation Centre. To enhance our love of music, an exemplary Celtic � ddler named Kierah came to teach us about Scottish and Irish � ddle music. Some of our students also took part in the Young Writers’ Con-ference to hone their skills through mini workshops de-livered by famous Canadian authors and illustrators. In May, the Huntington Hills students headed to the Cal-gary International Children’s Festival to see some great performances and experience one of Calgary’s incred-ible opportunities. Our students, parents, and sta� are very proud of their school and welcome Volunteers, par-ticularly through the Calgary Reads program.

YYC UPDATE TO THE COMMUNITY

Calgary International Airport (YYC) is an urban airport that connects Calgary and Alberta to the world. As an important part of the community, we work closely with community associations, government agencies and airlines to address noise concerns. Current efforts include:

To read the full RNP report and learn more about these options visit www.yyc.com or contact us at

[email protected].

Required Navigation Procedure (RNP) approaches are being implemented by NAV CANADA for arrivals to YYC. Implementation includes a 180 day review to assess noise in flight path areas and address any community issues.

Further reduction of aircraft deviation on 17L departures. YYC has requested that NAV CANADA investigate reducing the 10 degree turn on Runway 17L to 5 degrees. Any change would require approval by Transport Canada. NAV CANADA is currently investigating the safety of the operation.

Noise monitoring studies. The Authority has engaged a firm to study the utilization of YYC noise monitors throughout Calgary, add monitors in communities south of Runway 17L, and to monitor areas further away from YYC.

Happy Summer to Everyone,

Thinking about a yard improvement project?

Garages, decks, fences and even driveway widening are just some of the projects that often require a permit.

“Before you pay for materials, hire a contractor, or do it yourself, we encourage you to visit Calgary.ca/homeimprovement or get in touch with us here at The City,” says Jamie Fandrich, Planning Services Technician at The City of Calgary. Fandrich is part of the team that helps Calgarians un-derstand Alberta’s safety codes and City bylaws on the phone and in person at the Municipal Building. The latest resource Fandrich’s team uses to educate Calgarians on development and building regulations is the webpage calgary.ca/homeim-provement, which allows anyone interested in doing a renova-tion to browse popular home renovation topics for bylaw and permit information, property and land designation, drawings and forms they will need to complete their home renovation.

“It can sometimes be di� cult to understand when you need a permit and what City bylaws might impact your project – we’re here to help guide you through the process,” Fandrich says.

Planning, development, licence or permit question?

Visit Calgary.ca/homeimprovement or call and visit Planning Services

Have a Great Summer!

The 1st session of the 42nd Parliament has been busy and � lled with topics that are contentious to say the least. The vital issues of electoral reform and assisted suicide should be of concern to all Canadians and the resolution of these issues will a� ect the very nature of our country.

In May I held a Town Hall Meeting and was able to hear from many of you on these subjects as well as many others. The participants are to be commended on their forthright hon-esty and I very much appreciate their feedback. I would like to express my thanks to the Harvest Hills Alliance Church for their excellent service and hospitality.

In April I was proud to host a well-attended Career Services event which featured governmental, educational and com-munity based resources available to Albertans who are looking for work or to upgrade their employment skills. I am acutely aware of the precarious nature of the economy in this province and will persist in advancing the interest of Albertans at the federal level. Thank you to the Foothills Alliance Church for their help and support.

I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible this summer, on Canada Day, at Stampede and other commu-nity events. I would like to extend a big thank you to the hardworking volunteers who make these events possible and are tireless in their e� orts to improve the quality of life in their communities, and ensure a bright future for Calgary and all of Alberta. I will continue to engage with local com-munity groups and associations, constituents and many stakeholder groups in the riding with visits, meetings and roundtables and I am always delighted to hear about the issues that are important to you. Your comments are always of great help to me. I will also be out out door knocking in the riding again this summer and I am always apprecia-tive for the feedback I receive from you and I will thank you advance for taking the time out of your busy days to talk with me.

I will continue to be a strong voice for you in Ottawa and pledge to work hard to make your voices heard in the halls of government. As always, if you wish to comment on these or any other issues that are important to you and your fam-ily, please feel free to contact my o� ce with your concerns or you can send in your suggestions and comments directly to me through my website www.michellerempel.ca.
