We are ringing in the new year with Jessica, who is a new member of the Board as of the September 2024 AGM. According to Jessica, “the timing was right” to join a like-minded volunteer group close to home, having also volunteered her talents with UNICEF and in Calgary theatre marketing. In Glendale, she will be starting to take a look at integrating our social media tools to ensure we are communicating great information to community members and beyond!
Another area of importance for Jessica is Glendale’s green spaces. Jessica’s family of five has lived in Glendale for the last six years, and they are regulars at the ice rink, tennis courts, and garden plots, and attend all of the community events. They, like so many, love the unique parks and open areas we are so lucky to have that give us our family friendly community feel.
We all have stories about plans that changed when travel stopped in 2020 due to the pandemic. If you happen to catch up with Jessica the next time you are enjoying the songbird chirps and whistles in Optimist Park, you might want to ask her about the 2020 World Whistling Competition she had been about to take by storm!
