GILMORE PARK COMMUNITY LEAGUE

Community Update

June 2014


Dear Neighbours,

Gilmore Park News

Interested in having an event or party in Gilmore Park?  Many neighbours have inquired if the park can be booked for birthday parties etc.  The Recreation Parks and Culture Department has informed us that the gazebo and playground area is not a bookable space.  If you want to have a party in the park a good idea would be to post the date and time on the community bulletin board.  This doesn't mean that other people can not use the space at that time, but others will hopefully be courteous to clear the space for the party guests.

 If you are planning an event that will impact the soccer field or access to the soccer field then you do need to book it through facility booking staff.  You can book either by emailing facilitybookings@strathcona.ca or by calling 780-416-2211.

Wednesday, June 18 at 7pm - Gilmore Park Annual General Meeting 
Location Nitza's Pizza on Graham Road

Agenda Topics: Financial Report, Year in Review, Upcoming Events & Election of Directors

The Gilmore Park Community League is seeking volunteer board members for 2014/2015.  The GPCL Board of Directors meet quarterly and aim to host 2 events per year.  If you are interested in socializing and collaborating to keep your neighbourhood vibrant and safe please consider joining our fun group by emailing gilmorepark@live.com

 
Thank you to all the neighbours including Mayor Carr and Councillor Anderson for pitching in last Saturday to clean-up Gilmore Park.  This was the 5th year we held a clean-up event and each year we have more volunteers and less garbage.  Please help us keep our community park litter free!

GRAFFITI

Did you know? Free graffiti removal kits are available from Strathcona County Recreation, Parks and Culture.  Graffiti was recently spotted in our neighbourhood by young Ethan and he was able to quickly remove it using Graffiti wipes. Together we can prevent it, report it, remove it!

HONDURAS PLAYGROUND BUILD

We recently received word from the community of Santa Helene that our previous Gilmore Park play equipment hasn't been re-painted yet because they can not keep the children off it long enough!
