Dear SCA Community Members,
Welcome to June! As we transition into summer, we’re excited to share some fun events and important reminders to keep you and your loved ones safe and engaged in our community.
June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada. This month, we celebrate unique cultures, traditions and experiences of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. We encourage everyone to take some time to learn about the history and experiences of Indigenous peoples, and to participate in events and activities that promote reconciliation and understanding.
With warmer weather here, it’s important to be aware of the signs and dangers of heatstroke. Never leave children or pets alone in a hot car, even for a minute. Be sure to drink plenty of water and limit strenuous outdoor physical activity during peak heat hours. Check on elderly neighbours and watch for symptoms of heat exhaustion like dizziness, headache, and nausea. Staying informed on summer safety helps us look out for each other.
Yeehaw! Our annual Neighbour Day Stampede breakfast is just around the corner on Saturday, June 15 from 9:00 to 11:30 am at the community centre. Come hungry for a true Calgary experience complete with pancakes, sausages, coffee, juice, and good company. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with your neighbours and kick off the Stampede spirit. We’ll have fun activities for the kids as well so bring the whole family. Don’t forget to wear your plaid, hat, and boots! If you would like to volunteer for this event, please sign up on our website.
We hope everyone has a fun and safe June. Reach out to us at [email protected] with any community updates! Reminder: we will be on hiatus during July and August but please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
