The Neighborhood Empowerment Team (NET) will be doing a community safety presentation in our Community

Thursday September 17, at 7pm

In the OCL Park so Bring your Lawn Chair/s.

NET is a collaborative partnership between the City of Edmonton, Edmonton Police Service, The Family Centre, and United Way Capital Region. They work in partnership with communities like ours to address crime and social disorder concerns.

The community safety presentation will focus on crime prevention and reduction, with particular emphasis on how we can protect our homes, our property, and our community. The Youth Liaison (Lane) will also be there to connect with and engage with youth. Lane will have conversations with the youth around what makes them feel safe and unsafe in their community, and what changes could be made to make it better.

Let’s encourage our youth to participate and let us all come out in our numbers. Bring your Lawn Chair/s, we will be meeting in the OCL park practicing physical distancing.

Ever wonder what it would be like to have a picture in front of the World’s Largest Perogy, or take a bite the World’s Largest Sausage, or stand on the UFO Landing Pad? Would you be surprised to know that you could travel to six of the world’s largest monuments in a day trip?

Start out by traveling to Vegreville, driving east on Highway 16 to see the World’s largest Pysanka (Easter egg) and take a photo. Then head to St Paul to visit the UFO Landing Pad and have a little lunch. Then take a quick 20-minute drive northeast to Glendon, where you can see the World’s Largest Perogy. Head back west on Highway 28 and stop in Vilna and see the beautiful World’s Largest Mushrooms, have a little ice cream, then on to Andrew to visit the World’s Largest Mallard Duck. Carry on to your final stop at Mundare to see the World’s Largest Ring of Sausage – home of Stawnichy Meats. One mile further north and you are back on highway 16 west back into Edmonton.

Have a fun memorable day taking pictures with all the northeastern Alberta giants. Who knew we had all these great things right in our backyard!
