Hello Kincora,
During the month of August, I was in India visiting family. It had been five years since I last visited them. If you have been writing to me with no response, it’s probably because of my travels here. I have been busy meeting my extended family. Please bear with me as I get back to my normal schedule.
It was sad to hear and read about the devastating hailstorm in Calgary. As much as rains are welcome here in the West, hailstorms are not. Kincora Residents Association has written some very important points on how to deal with this weather event. Do take a peek. Hope things will settle down soon.
On September 30, the day for Truth and Reconciliation, Canadians learn, recognize, and reflect upon the history and ongoing legacy of residential schools, the trauma experienced by many, and the hope for a healthy future. Here is a good link about the ways to learn about it and engage – https://dailynews.mcmaster.ca/articles/8-ways-to-engage-in-truth-and-reconciliation/.
As fall starts, we will all start looking for fall fun and pumpkin patches. Be on the lookout for Symons Valley United Church’s organized Trunk or Treat event. It is a lot of fun for those young ones who would like to stay in a smaller area.
Kincora Community Association rink building will be coming up late October. We need your help! Our rink crew is looking for people who want to come out and learn how we build the rink and maintain the ice and ensure that we have people to take care of the rink into the future. If you’ve ever thought about helping out in your community, this winter is it!
We have also started working on setting up a committee for building a sports complex in the Kincora fields. If you have ideas for the sports complex, do write to me or any of the board. We also need people to be on the committee to help us out.
As always, your questions or comments are welcome.
Mallika Velamuri
President, Kincora Community Association
