Discovery Ridge’s June Message from the Board

DiscoveryRidge mb

We hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy during this time. We wanted to provide you with an update on a few items:

Social Distancing

It’s great to see many people out for walks and maintaining social distancing. Being active and social during this time is important for your mental and physical health. Please note: the tennis courts have recently opened with use guidelines in place. The playgrounds remain closed as per the City of Calgary.

New Board Members

The DRCA is seeking new members since we have a few long-time board members retiring in the next year. If you would like to have a say in your community and make a big difference, this is a great opportunity. We have a great board! The board has monthly meetings approximately 8 to 10 times over the year. Feel free to drop in on one of our Board Meetings to find out more. Email [email protected] for more details.

Discovery Businesses

Given that many small independent businesses are struggling during this crisis, we ask residents to support our local businesses since we are lucky to have them in our neighborhood. A number of Discovery businesses are open during this period and would welcome more community support.

Bottle Shack

The DRCA bottle shack is back. Please take this opportunity to drop off your bottles and cans. Proceeds from the shack go back into the community through DRCA community events, projects, and advocacy.

ENMAX Transmission Line Update

Please see the update within this month’s newsletter.

Community Events

The DRCA Stampede BBQ on Sunday, July 5, has been cancelled as per the City of Calgary ban on hosting community events till August 31. The DRCA Music in the Park event scheduled for Saturday, September 12, will be subject to the City of Calgary guidance. As a result, we will keep you informed as to whether this event will proceed.
