Community Corner for August 7Please MARK YOUR CALENDARS! We are having our Fall Kick-off BBQ and Block Party on Sunday, September 11 following church. We will have great food, fun games, activities and prizes! It will be a good time to catch up with one another, and we encourage you to invite friends and neighbours to join us for a fabulous afternoon! The traditional name for Edmonton is Amiskwaciy Waskahikan, which means “Beaver Hills House”. The City of Edmonton has many excellent Indigenous learning opportunities and experiences.
