North Glenora Community League
May 2015
Proposed entrance
signs for
North Glenora
These five sign designs have been
proposed for North Glenora, and we
would welcome your input. Please
send feedback to ngcl.ppres@gmail.
com, or drop a note in the Community
League mailbox for the Past President
by Friday, May 15.
Which option do you prefer? What do
you/don’t you like?
We don’t know exactly where these
signs will be placed, but the three
triangles near the entrances to the
community are likely options. There
may be other locations as well.
If there is a clear favourite, the
Community League will proceed with
that sign design.
If there are some other interesting
suggestions or changes, we’ll put it to
a vote.

Window & Balcony
Safety
With the return of warmer weather, Emergency Medical Services (EMS) would
like to remind parents & caregivers, of an often overlooked hazard in the home –
open windows. Every year, paramedics respond to emergencies where a child
has fallen from an open window – often from the second floor. Falls such as these
are preventable by taking time to assess your home and ensuring windows are
safe.
Windows and screens
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Further prevention tips
Move furniture such as cribs,
beds, stools, and change tables
away from windows to prevent
access to them;
Keep drapery cords out of
childrens’ reach. Wrap excess
cord around cleats, or tie-downs
to avoid a choking hazard;
Remember: screens are
designed to keep bugs out, NOT
to keep children in.
•
•
•
•
Balconies
Do not underestimate a child’s
ability to climb. Furniture and
other items stored on balconies
and decks can be used to climb
resulting in falls over the railing;
Consider installing a balcony
guard to eliminate access
between the vertical bars of a
balcony, or deck.
Children aged one to four are
at highest risk of falling from a
window or balcony;
Direct supervision of children
is the single most effective
way to prevent falls from
windows and balconies;
Consider installing safety
devices which limit the
distance in which a window
be can open;
Ensure the safety device can
be released quickly, so the
window can be used for
escape in case of fire, or
other emergency.

Planning and Transportation Committee Update
In 2014, the developers of two different projects approached the North Glenora Community League. To read detailed
accounts of the community engagement with the developers, visit northglenora.org/development/. Here are some
recent updates:
Stan Daniels Centre and Metis Capital Housing
Corporation (MCHC)
In December of 2014 the Holmes Group announced
that they were no longer involved in the project, at the
request of MCHC. The MCHC confirmed to NGCL
that, pending the announcement of a new MCHC CEO
(at this point still pending), that the development would
be on hold. MCHC has committed to monitoring and
maintaining the Stan Daniels building while the project
is on hold.
NGCL has communicated to MCHC that it is our
expectation that the Community Engagement process
that had been set in place in 2014 would continue once
the new CEO was in place.
Westmount Presbyterian Church Development
Intermet Housing is in the process of compiling and
responding to the most recent round of community
feedback on their proposed development. This should
be complete by end of April, and will be submitted to
the City of Edmonton along with their application for
rezoning of the property. The submission package,
including updated elevations, and how they have
responded to community concerns through the presubmission period will be included. They will ensure
that the submission package is sent to the Community
League.
Intermet has committed to at least one more community
meeting to review community feedback and how they
have responded to in in their rezoning application.
Finding a home for backyard fruit
Walking around our 60-year-old neighbourhood, we
recognized that a lot of good fruit was falling to the
ground and being wasted. We decided to collect fruit
such as rhubarb, raspberries, cherries, pears and apples
that were not being used by homeowners.
1. Tell your
neighbours
about the fruit and invite them to come and pick.
You can arrange with them to leave you a portion in
return for your sharing.
We are a not-for-profit society with the mission of
connecting this wonderful local resource with those
who will use it.
2. Call us at 780-244-0129 and we will let you know
about coming to pick ourselves. Please note that
apples are so abundant that we often cannot pick –
but if you drop them off at our kitchen we will make
sure they go to someone who will use them.
We make jams, jellies, sauces and condiments that are
60 to 100% “rescued” fruit; we teach preserving courses
so people can make their own; we connect homes with
excess fruit to those who want to pick for themselves;
and fruit that is excess to the above sources goes to local
charities, group homes, community kitchens, small food
banks and anyone else who will use it (at no charge). In
2014, we redirected about 15,000 kg apples and this is
just a small portion of the apple trees in our city.
If you have fruit in your yard that is excess to your
needs, or you are unable to do the work yourself, here
are a few options to consider.
North Glenora Community League - ngcl.org
3. If you don’t want others in your yard give us a call.
We will tell you where and when you can drop off the
fruit or we can arrange for a pick up.
Call us at 780-244-0129 if you want to be a volunteer
picker, know of a place that would use some of this free
local fruit, or have other questions or comments.
There is a lot more to our story, so please check out the
website at www.fruitsofsherbrooke.ca.

Summer Playground
LeaderLeader
– North Glenora
/ Grovenor
Summer
Playground
- North
Glenora/Grosvenor
Changing lives, one game of tag at a time! An exciting summer opportunity for a student who
has a passion for recreation, love working with the public, and wants to make a real difference
for young Edmontonians in the Grovenor and North Glenora communities. We are looking for a
playground leader who wants to spend their days leading Drop-In Community Playground
Programs for children and youth focusing on leisure education, life skill development, leadership
development and outdoor activities that may include games, sports, crafts, and special events.
The Summer Playground Leader will be responsible for the following:
� Lead children/youth in recreational activities
� Ensure the safety of participants
� Work with volunteers
� Prepare daily and weekly plans
� Maintain statistics
� Represent the partnering agencies
� Other related duties as required
Qualifications:
� Be a student returning to school (between the ages of 16 and 30).
�Some experience working with the general public, children and other program users
� Current First Aid and CPR or equivalent
� Ability to obtain a clear Police Information Check, including Vulnerable Sector check.
Hours of Work:
Up to 8 hours a day, up to 35 hours per week. The position will start in June and continue until
late August. The student will spend their days divided between North Glenora and Grovenor
parks. Some evening and weekend work may be required but most hours will be during regular
work hours (Monday-Friday).
Salary:
$17/hour. Part of the student’s salary will come from a Canada Student Job Grant.
To Apply:
Send a resume, cover letter and references no later than May 11th to: [email protected].
Shortlisted candidates will be contacted for interviews shortly afterwards.
Background on this Position:
Many families rely on the Green Shack program for their children during the summer months.
This year, the program has been scaled back and is only offered half-days in fewer communities.
As a way to address this, two community leagues (North Glenora and Grovenor) and two
churches (St. Paul’s Anglican and Westmount Presbyterian) have agreed to work together
provide supplemental programming. A summer student will be hired to lead and organize
activities similar to the Green Shack program for the mornings in North Glenora and the
afternoons in Grovenor. In addition, volunteers from the 4 partners will be invited to help
organize games, crafts and activities during the summer months. The summer student will work
with these volunteers to organize fun-filled summer activities for children and youth.
