Shinny is Back
Starting Jan 9th on Tuesday nights from 5:30-6:30pm. Once again, it will run until mid-March, or until the ice goes. All participants aged 6-12 can join.
The kids require hockey skates, skate guards, hockey helmet and face mask and optionally knee and elbow pads.
After 14 amazing years of dedication, coaches Grant & Danielle Parks are hanging up their skates, but worry not! Patrick Palardy and Dave Lamoueaux are ready to lead the kiddos through some outdoor fun this year!
It costs $30 and requires a community membership either from Rosemont or another community
Rosemont residents get a free community membership by going to RosemontYYC.com/membership.
To register, please contact Jean Blackstock at 403.305.9447 or jmblackstock@gmail.com.
If you have a child that would like to participate but are unable due to financial limitations, please email us at info@rosemontYYC.com.
The Ice Guys are in full swing as well. If you want to volunteer to help make the best outdoor ice in the city, shoot us an email and we’ll put you in contact with Captain Kurt.
Family Movie Night
It’s been a while since our last Family Movie Night! So save the date of January 13 and more details will come soon. If you aren’t receiving our emails, sign up at RosemontYYC.com.
Rezoning Open House
Save the Date - January 24
As we mentioned in the AGM, there has been a lot of misinformation and discussion around the proposed zoning and parking bylaw changes that will be discussed in council in 2024. At the time of this writing, we haven’t yet seen the official policies to be approved by council. But we want to ensure that residents have accurate information and a conduit to our elected officials.
We will be hosting an Open House on the evening of January 24 to provide information as well as an appearance by Councilor Chu. More details to come.
New Resources Page
We have created a Resources page on our website for things such as neighbourhood crime stats, links to City resources and others. Visit RosemontYYC.com/resources to see more. If you have a suggestion for something that should be added, please contact us.
Many programs are starting up again in the new year, including our friends who rent space at our hall, such as LDK Foundation Karate and Common Digs. Please visit RosemontYYC.com/programs for more info.
As we get into the holiday season, we encourage everyone to reach out to those around you and find ways, no matter how small, to help one another. Shovel a neighbour’s sidewalk, help someone across the street, donate time or money if you’re able to, or anything you can think of.
This is what community looks like and we can all use a little more of it during the holiday season.
Happy holidays from all of us at the Rosemont Community Association!
