School’s out and summer is in full swing! With Pedalheads Camp back in the neighbourhood, you may have noticed more cyclists, kids, and pedestrians out and about in Kincora. Let’s all do our part to stay safe and watch out for one another.

Speaking of bikes, here’s some tips to keep your ride safe and secure:

Bicycle theft continues to be a concern in Calgary, but there are easy ways to protect your bike and boost your chances of getting it back if it goes missing.

Have you registered your bike with the Bike Index?

It’s a free, online tool that helps police and the community return stolen bikes to their rightful owners. During a recent Calgary Police operation, officers encouraged all cyclists to take advantage of this valuable resource.

Top Tips to Prevent Bike Theft:

• Lock your bike properly by securing both wheels and the frame to a solid object.

• Use multiple locks for added security.

• Take removable items with you (e.g., lights, bells, and seats).

• Avoid leaving your bike in visible or accessible places for long periods—especially overnight.

• Keep your garage and storage sheds locked.

• Record your bike’s details: make, model, serial number, and colour—and take photos.

• Register your bike with Bike Index and report it if lost or stolen.

Found a bike? Report it at ifoundabike.ca.

Let’s work together to keep our community safe and our bikes secure!

Stampede Breakfast

Yahoo! The community association has been busy organizing events, and the Stampede Breakfast is just around the corner. This year’s event takes place on Sunday, July 13 from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon. Be sure to thank our dedicated board members and amazing volunteers who make these events possible!

HOA Fees and Summer Updates

While the KRA board takes a summer meeting break, work continues behind the scenes. Please note:

• Interest has been updated on all accounts with outstanding HOA fees (as of June 30, 2025).

• Accounts in arrears for over three years may be forwarded for collections soon.

Fencing Reminder: Good Fences, Good Neighbours

If your property has a developer-installed fence, upkeep—including painting and repairs—is the responsibility of the homeowner. This is outlined in your property encumbrance. A well-maintained fence helps keep Kincora looking great!

Thank you for helping to keep Kincora beautiful and a proud place to call home.
