Important notice: Due to the arena collapse, Fairview’s Spring Fling event is tentative at the time of our newsletter deadline in early March. Further details of the event will be included in our insert, but final notice of confirmation will be posted on our website in late April. If Spring Fling proceeds, this event will be scaled back this year with only City garbage and organics trucks due to space limitations in the parking lot. See the accompanying insert or check our website for full details on this always-popular event! Many volunteers are also needed - contact Dave by email or phone 403-454-8327 if you can help out.
It’s that time of year again when Fairview gets (more) busy and gets cleaned up! This is also the time of year when our volunteer need is the greatest. We really appreciate the support you have given us over the many years and we ask that you consider helping your community once again for our various annual spring events and beyond. We are looking for helpers for the TENTATIVE: Spring Fling — Sunday, May 6th, 7:30am-2:30pm (event runs 8:30am-1:30pm, but need some additional time for setup/cleanup). As you know, we need many helpers for this event:
traffic directors (2 people at any given time)
truck drivers and helpers for household pickups
concession staff (2-3 people) to cook for our volunteers
membership seller and pickups director
waste “flingers”
cleanup crew (push brooms appreciated!)
Contact Dave by email or phone 403-454-8327 if you can help out.

We are looking for helpers for the Bottle Drive bag distribution - Week of May 7th (prior to Friday the 11th)
We need as many people as we can get to help deliver garbage bags/leaflets door-to-door in mailboxes for our Bottle Drive on Saturday, May 12th. The distribution of bags is critical to the success of the bottle drive! This is a super-easy job and can be done quickly with extra helpers (each person can typically do about 2 houses per minute). If you can do a route (1-2 streets) in your area, please let us know by email!

Flint Park (South-end)
This is a free event for all ages featuring BBQ food (first come, first served), sweeping vistas of the Calgary skyline, and some epic Bocce Ball games for all skill levels. There will be other non-bocce activities for kids and adults too. In addition, come learn about possible future changes to this green space and have your say in how this park can be improved upon so that it becomes somewhere all residents of Fairview can utilize and enjoy. Bring your lawn chair, and please note that there is no official parking at this site. Want to become involved with the committee seeking to “activate” this park space?
