YouthWrite 2021
YouthWrite® Society Canada. YouthWrite is a non-profit organization that runs camps for kids that are centered on writing, creating, art, and self-expression.
This year, we are one of the very few groups running live, in-person day camps for youths in Alberta, with two of our camps running in Edmonton’s River Valley, two camps running at Kamp Kiwanis near Bragg Creek, just outside Calgary, and one camp running online via Zoom.
With the rising numbers of mental health issues among youths and students amid this pandemic, we are trying to reach as many youths, community leagues, students, teachers, and parents as possible to support the #codepink movement and the mental health of young Albertans.
Good afternoon,
Attached is the postcard for the Community Art Contest that you can expect to see arriving in mailboxes in Crestwood, Glenora, Grovenor, and West Jasper Place shortly.
Many residents have seen the large worksite at 148 Street and Summit Drive. EPCOR would like to try to improve the look of that site by putting community art on the construction fence hoarding and we would like that art to come from the community.
There will be one winner from each of the following categories:
Crestwood Community Garden
The Community League has been allotted 10 garden boxes filled with soil.
This initiative is to increase Edmontonians’ access to fresh food and to provide opportunities for safe activities that promote community involvement, recreation, and wellness. The temporary gardens consist of raised beds designed for community food production, and help to reduce barriers in increasing local food growing spaces.
Apply today for a garden plot, if demand is high we will do a lottery draw. Deadline to apply is June 6, 2021.

I’m sure you have seen COVID numbers increasing over the past month, culminating in record numbers for the entire pandemic in Alberta today.
The government of Alberta increased public health restrictions today.
While the newest public health restrictions still allow for the proposed 8:2 player to coach ratio , things are trending in the wrong direction. What this means for Crestwood soccer is there are a number of coaches who are not comfortable coaching this year. I am certain they will reach out to you individually to let you know their personal decisions.
Please know that we respect your individual decisions on whether you keep your child enrolled or choose to withdraw. If you are comfortable keeping your child enrolled in soccer we are confident that the league will find another team to place them on. If you wish to withdraw and have paid your fees already, you can email the league to request a refund. The website says; if you are a paid registered player, you have the option to request a refund, less a $10 admin fee. A refund request must be submitted by May 16, 2021 to accounts@ewzsa.com
Refunds less fixed costs after this date will be issued if EMSA has cancelled the season only.
If you have registered but not paid, the zone will be sending an email by May 15 with updated information. if you choose to participate, payment will be need to be completed by May 19 2021.
Further details to follow.
The portal is currently closed for online payment. Please reach out to president@cclboard.ca if you have any questions.

The City of Edmonton’s Street Sweeping program has begun.
View our map online to follow along with crews’ progress and view when your street will be scheduled at edmonton.ca/StreetSweeping.
When your area is scheduled for sweeping, please move vehicles off of the roadway to allow our crews to move quickly and efficiently.
During street sweeping, crews clean high volume arterials at night and residential roadways during the day. Overall, the program is expected to take six weeks, weather permitting.
Thank you.
EPCOR is responsible for relocating all the power, water and drainage utilities to avoid potential conflicts with the Valley Line West LRT infrastructure. This is the second stage of the Valley Line, an urban-style 27 km line that will operate between Mill Woods in southeast Edmonton and Lewis Farms in west Edmonton.
To meet the overall LRT project schedule, the City has requested that EPCOR perform the utility relocations within specific areas along the alignment prior to LRT construction.
Please see the attached for information on the upcoming 2021 work for this project. We would like to request your assistance with sharing this information on our behalf. Hard copies will be delivered to residents and businesses located near the work areas outlined in the attached notice next week.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at 780-412-4200.
Thank you,2021-03-24_VLWLRT_2021ProjUpdate
