The City of Calgary would like OUR ideas!

Hi, I am Corinne and I am a volunteer administrating this blog.  I have no idea about how to do this right, but I think that the initiaive is an incredible opportunity for Acadia to have 10 years of city funding to help create a stronger Acadia.

The Acadia Strong Neighbourhood Initiative is for all residents of Acadia.  Low Income, Middle Income, High Income, children, teens, young adults, middle age, seniors - we are all part of this initiative. Born in Acadia? Born somewhere else in Calgary? Born in another Province? another Country? Even another Planet? Doesn't matter where you are from, if you live in Acadia, this is YOUR community. Just moved here yesterday?  Great! Welcome to Acadia!   Lived here all your life? Fantastic - maybe you can help us understand the history of our community!  It doesn't matter how long you have lived here....please, we need you to help make it stronger.  How can we do this?

It all starts by talking about it. Please share the news about the initiative with your friends and neighbours in Acadia.

If you can, come out to the meetings or share your ideas on the blog or Facebook page or by phoning or emailing Viviana from the City of Calgary.  Her contact info is below.

If you belong to a club or organization of any kind, school council, sport group, condo or apartment group, any group that meets in or includes participants from Acadia, please consider calling Viviana to have her come out and do a wonderful short presentation about this wonderful 10 year funded initiative. It's up to us to present to the city what we want to do to make our wonderful community even better!

Call Viviana with the City of Calgary at 403-537-7596 or send her an email at viviana.reinberg@calgary.ca

You can join the facebook page, share it with your friends, vote and add ideas by searching "Acadia Strong Neighbourhood Initiative" and looking at the wall for the voting area.

Thanks for reading and I hope that you consider getting involved however you can, whether its via internet, in  person, a phone call or email to Viviana, or chatting with family and friends. It's all important!
