“Your time is limited; don’t waste it living someone
else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living
the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the
noise of other’s opinion drowned your own inner
voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already
know what you truly want to become. Everything
else is secondary.”

HAPPENINGS
Get Involved and Make a
Difference Today!
By Fiona
JOIN the Board...
When I started this position at the hall I never realized
the upkeep and maintenance of the hall side of things. It
is a big building! It is a well taken care of building thanks
to a number of people who have given their time to
fundraise, fill out grants, fix things, and maintain the
building. We just finished doing a Life Cycle Report for
the next 5-10 years and the Facility committee will work
on getting the recommendations in the report done.
On a daily basis there is a running toilet, light bulb out,
sticky floor, or concern that needs addressed. I am not
complaining – it is just interesting to reflect on the different areas that this position covers – and I know how
to fix a stopped up kitchen sink now. If you happen to
be interested in the inner workings of the Hall itself, the
Board needs a Facility Director! It is terrific that there are
some new faces on the Board of Directors that bring a
new interest, focus, and set of skills to the table.

I am finding it hard to think about December, as I am
still a little bit over chocolated from Hallowe’en – I heard
such a neat idea for Hallowe’en – ‘Trunk or Treat’. Something that I think would be fun to do one Hallowe’en. I
will have to look into it for the future – but it sure sounds
like fun. Is like a ‘show and shine’, but with scary cars and
lots of candy!
Simply find your niche...

I hope your holiday preparations are full of festive fun!
An Asian feline convention was being held in Delhi.
At the first luncheon meeting at one of the round
tables for 6 were seated two female cats from Siam, 2
male Bengal tigers and 2 male cats from Nepal. When
served first, one of the Siamese cats said: “Ah quiche! I
just love quiche.” One of the Bengal tigers said: “Tiger
men don’t eat quiche.” One of the Nepalese cats then
said” “But Katmandu!”

Metal Galaxy
Haysboro Community
P
ascal Espinosa, owner of Metal Galaxy, has over
20 years of experience in retail and a passion for
customer service the old fashion way. Originally
from France and with family roots in Spain and Algeria,
Pascal believes the best businesses understand what
makes their customers happy and listens to their needs.
“It’s a bit like running a food market in a small town: you
know all your customers by name, you know why they
visit and you cater to that.”
What all of it amounts to is a sense of community, camaraderie, and social interaction that so much of modern
society is missing. Metal Galaxy provides a place where
everyone is equal, parents can bond with their teenage
kids again and new friendships can be forged!
Metal Galaxy is open on Tuesdays (10-3), Wednesdays
(11-6), Thursdays and Fridays (11-9) and Saturdays (11-8).
We are located in Haysboro, a warm traditional Calgary
neighbourhood, at 200 Haddon Road SW. You can also find
us on Facebook (Metal Galaxy), Twitter (@MetalGalaxy1) or
simply by checking our website www.metal-galaxy.com.
Metal Galaxy is a gaming store that provides Calgary
with a casual environment in which to play and collect
their favourite card and board games. From Collectible
Card Games such as Magic, The Gathering (which features
even a Pro Tour!), Yugioh and Pokemon to household
name board games such as Settlers of Catan, Dominion,
Munchkin, and many others.
Customers at Metal Galaxy know they will be welcomed, accepted and included from the moment they
set foot in the store. You might have guessed that the
“Metal” part of Metal Galaxy is indeed music related, as
the store prides itself on creating a warm atmosphere
filled with non-commercial music, so that you may further expand your mind while playing games.
The store features expert advice on how to play various
games and customize your decks of cards, a loyalty reward program, exclusive custom items such as Instant
Collections and custom made decks as well as a weekly
tournament schedule. Metal Galaxy is also focused on
a high level of organization for its inventory of over
250,000 cards! A selection of singles for Magic, Pokemon, Yugioh, Heroclix, Star Wars CCG, Spoils, Lord of the
Rings LCG, Game of Thrones LCG and some older and
out of print games are also available.

in the community
Upcoming: January 22 we are having a travel presentation on Italy, and on February 26 an afternoon of music.
Watch for details in the January Horn.
There are still some copies of the Haysboro history book
up for grabs. If you would like a copy (or an extra one)
they are available at the Community Hall (403-2531563) during regular office hours. Any cash donations

The Haysboro Senior Resources Group meets on the
fourth Thursday of the month (except July, August and
December) 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. at the Haysboro Community
Hall, 1204 - 89 Avenue S.W.
We have a busy fall with two interesting speaker programs - one on Foot Care, and another on how to avoid
scams and frauds. In November, we had a craft and bake
sale, and our annual holiday turkey dinner.
We wish to thank the group of volunteers from the
Lighthouse Church who spent a Saturday raking leaves
for seniors in our community. It is a great service and
very much appreciated by those who need a bit of help
in their homes.
We want to wish everyone a happy holiday season, and
hope to see you on January 22.

Focusing on the future
As we look back on the past year we have much to be
thankful for at the Calgary Board of Education. This
fall we had more than 3,700 new students enrol in our
schools, bringing our total enrolment to 114,472 students. We are proud that we are the dynamic learning
community of choice for students from kindergarten to
adult education.
We are also proud of the results our students are achieving. In the 2013, 14 provincial achievement tests and
diploma exams, our students continued to outperform
the province in most subjects, particularly at the excellence standard. In addition, our high school completion
rate continues to rise.
In the last year, our students have also made significant
contributions to their communities, volunteering thousands of hours and raising funds for local and global
initiatives.
Looking forward to 2015 and beyond, we know we
have more work to do. Education trends are shifting as
we continue to support and improve student learning.
These include shifts in how we assess and report on
student learning and how we ensure the success of our
high school students.
Our system has also been very involved in the provincial government’s curriculum redesign initiative, which
is reviewing what K-12 students learn and how they
learn it. As we continue to make these shifts, the voices
of our parents and community will continue to play an
important role.
The Board of Trustees would like to wish you and your
family a happy holiday season and wish you all the best
in the new year. We always welcome your comments,
feedback and questions. You can contact the Board of
Trustees at [email protected].
Haysboro Preschool
We have been so busy at the preschool it is hard to
believe the Holiday season is here. Back in September
we welcomed many new families to our community of
learners, and the children began (or continued) their
early childhood education in our classroom. As usual,
family involvement helps us connect to the people
in our neighbourhood, and plays a vital role in creating positive memories and outcomes for our children.
Thanks everyone!
In preparation for our Holiday celebration, the children
have been working on gifts for giving, songs for singing and a performance of “The Gingerbread Man” for
sharing at our Christmas parties on December 11 and
12. Wish us luck!
Happy Holidays and best wishes for the New Year from
the Haysboro Community Preschool.

Holiday Safety Tips
Calgary Fire Department
Christmas trees
• Get a freshly cut tree. It stays green longer and is less
of a fire hazard.
• Always test for freshness before buying. A tree with
high moisture content is safer. Very few needles should
fall when the butt of the tree is tapped on the ground.
Needles should bend, not break, and the stump should
be sticky with resin.
• Use a tree stand with a broad base for better balance
and a large water reservoir to immerse the tree butt.
Make sure the base of the tree is always in water.
• Do not set your tree up near a heat source such as a radiator, television, fireplace or heating duct and do not
block doors or windows.
• Never use lit candles on a tree.
• After the holidays, properly dispose of trees as soon as
possible. The City of Calgary has a Christmas tree recycling program. For details visit calgary.ca.
Decorations
• Choose flame-retardant or flame resistant and noncombustible decorations.
• If there are young children or pets in your home, avoid
very small decorations.
• Avoid using angel hair (glass wool) together with
spray-on snowflakes. This combination is highly combustible.
• Do not use metallic ornaments. If they make contact
with defective wiring, they become a shock hazard.
Lights
• Use CSA (Canadian Standards Association) and/or
ULC (Underwriters Laboratories of Canada) approved
lights.
• Use the proper lights for the environment. Indoor
lights should not be used outdoors because they lack
weatherproof connections. Some outdoor lights burn
too hot for indoor use.
• Inspect lights before use. Check for cracked bulbs and
frayed, broken or exposed wires. Discard faulty bulbs.
20
• Do not use electric lights on metallic trees. A faulty
system could energize the tree and shock or electrocute anyone who touches it. Illuminate metallic trees
with coloured floodlights placed at a safe distance
from the tree and out of reach.
• Turn off all tree and display lights before retiring for
the night or leaving the house.
• Make sure not to overload an electrical outlet or extension cord.
Candles
• Place candles away from combustible materials such
as curtains, paper, furniture, etc.
• A responsible adult should always be present when
candles are lit.
• Keep candles in sturdy holders, on stable surfaces and
away from drafts, children and pets.
• Keep matches and lighters used to light candles in a
safe place, away from children.
• Ensure candles are extinguished when leaving the
room or going to bed.
• Remember: when you go out, blow out.
Fireplaces
• Never burn gift-wrap, boxes, cartons or other packaging in the fireplace. They burn too rapidly and generate
far too much heat.
• Do not hang Christmas stockings from the mantel
when the fireplace is in use.
• Always use a screen in front of the fireplace to protect
against flying sparks. Fireplace glass can heat to more
than 200 C degrees. Keep children away from fireplaces to avoid injury.
• Never use gasoline or other flammable liquids to start
a fire.
• Use only seasoned, dried wood.
• Never leave the fire unattended or let it smolder.
• Clean out the ashes regularly but allow them to cool
for 72 hours in a metal container. Store outside, away
from flammable materials.
• Do not use Christmas trees for firewood.
• Have chimneys cleaned annually by a certified technician.
Last but not least ... make sure your
smoke detectors work.

Winter has arrived and it’s time to be mindful of how the buildup of ice and snow on city sidewalks can post a risk of injury to
Calgarians. Older adults, those with mobility issues or parents
pushing strollers or walking with young children, may find it
treacherous to venture out if neighbours are not diligent about
clearing the ice and snow. All of us can help make walking in
our communities safe for everyone if we work together and follow the regulations set out in Calgary’s Street Bylaw.
Property owners are responsible for clearing all sidewalks adjacent to their property. This means removing all snow and ice
down to the bare concrete within 24 hours after the snow stops
falling. If, as a property owner, you do not live at the residence,
it is important to work with tenants or arrange for a contractor
to clear the snow. It’s also important to note that if a property is
being developed, the developer is often the owner responsible
to clean sidewalks around a construction site or empty lot. The
property owner is ultimately responsible for snow clearing under the bylaw. For any ice that is difficult to remove, a de-icing
mixture is available at fire halls or Roads depots. Please bring
your own container.
Remember that snow from private property cannot be put
onto the road or boulevard. Large mounds of snow in the street
can impede the flow of traffic, limit driver and pedestrian visibility and hinder Blue Cart and Black Bin collection.
Sidewalks also need to be clear of obstructions such as electrical cords. When plugging in your vehicle, make sure you don’t
place an electrical cord on or over any portion of a street.
Have you considered being a Snow Angel? It can be a challenge for some residents to shovel and clear their sidewalks.
The Snow Angel campaign encourages citizens to be good
neighbours by helping older adults and others in need with
their snow removal. All you have to do is adopt someone’s sidewalk this winter and keep it clear.
Let’s remember that snow, ice and obstructions on our sidewalks can result in serious injuries and can cause those with
limited mobility to be confined indoors. Be a good neighbour
and clear the snow.
To find out more about snow and ice removal in Calgary visit
calgary.ca/snow or contact 311. For information on how to become a Snow Angel, visit Calgary.ca/snowangels.

Fish Creek Speaker Series
Cold Weather Safety
Geology: The Foundation for Alberta Parks
Presented by Dr. Mark Fenton of the Alberta Geological
Survey
Alberta Health Services EMS responds to many cold weather related emergencies every winter. Simple actions, such
as: dressing appropriately and anticipating sudden weather changes may help keep you warm and safe this season.
Thursday, January 22, 2015, 7:00 – 8:00pm
Fish Creek Environmental Learning Centre, Shannon
Terrace, Fish Creek Provincial Park

Frostnip
•Frostnip occurs when skin is extremely cold, but not frozen. It commonly affects the ears, nose, cheeks, fingers
and toes
•Skin appears red, but also turns white when pressed. It
may also feel numb to the touch
•When treated promptly, frost-nipped skin will heal without complication
•Gently re-warming the affected area in a warm environment is advised
Alberta’s parks are the result of geology and geologic
processes and therefore contain many geological
wonders. This talk will focus on a few of these including answers to the following: “The where and why
of hot pots”. “Rock and spontaneous combustion.”
“Why the big stink at Harper Creek?” and more! “Warp
speed Alberta?” “Where was Vermilion Chutes 370
million years ago?” “Where are you in the pink in Alberta?” “Why a railroad in the Athabasca River?” and
“Marvellous megamarbles.”
Frostbite
•Frostbite occurs when skin becomes so cold, that the skin
and underlying tissue freeze
•It may look white and waxy and will feel hard to the touch
•Treatment begins with removal from the cold environment and placing the affected area in warm, not hot, water, until re-warmed
•Seek further medical attention as required
Hypothermia
•Hypothermia is an abnormally low body temperature –
less than 34°C (as compared to normal body temperature
of about 37°C)
•People suffering hypothermia may act inappropriately
with uncharacteristic stumbling, mumbling, and fumbling, as their body temperature continues to lower
•Early recognition and prompt medical attention is crucial.
Left untreated, hypothermia may progress to coma and/
or death
•Call 9-1-1. Don’t forget to protect yourself from the factors
that originally lead to the patient’s situation
•Gentle re-warming should start as quickly as possible, including: removal of wet, or constrictive clothing; covering
with blankets, or sleeping bags; and protecting the person from further heat loss (wind, moisture and contact
with cold surfaces)
•Dress in layers – it’s easier to remove layers, when warm,
rather than not having enough layers, when cold
Having access to a survival/first-aid kit within your vehicle
is also advised.

Outdoor Hoc
Tot Time
There is a hidden gem in our community for parents of very young children. It’s called Tot Time
and it’s held at the community center every Monday (excluding holidays observed by the preschool) from 915-11am.
It is a time for parents/caregivers to sit and enjoy
a cup of coffee with other parents and caregivers
from the community and surrounding area while
the kids have fun playing with a wide assortment
of toys. It is completely unstructured and unscripted. It is a chance for the kids to socialize and adults
to socialize too!
For a minimal fee ($1/child) it’s a great outing for
you and your young children. Children who attend regularly are newborn to about 4 years of
age. You are welcome to bring a nut-free snack for
your child and come and go as needed.
We live in a wonderful community full of young
families. This is the perfect opportunity to get to
know the people in the community and forge lasting friendships. Come join us!

Here is just a partial list of the physiological benefits associated with regular exercise:
•Lower blood pressure and decreased resting heart rate
•Improved blood flow to muscles and internal organs
•Increased volume of blood pumped with each heart
beat
•Better absorption of oxygen and improved expiration
of carbon dioxide through the lungs
•Increased lean muscle mass for improved strength
and higher metabolism, which means more calories
burned (even in a resting state)
•Improved bone mineral density for reduced risk of
fractures and breaks
•Lower blood lipid (fat) profile
•Improved body composition; less fat, more muscle
•Improved self confidence
•Endorphins released when exercising to help you feel
good
By giving your family and friend the gift of health, you
are truly giving them a lot more than a few hours of fun.
You are giving them a lifetime of health and wellness
benefits.

Ward 11
www.ward11calgary.ca
As winter arrives, so does the end of this year’s budget
negotiations. For the past month, Council has heard
from each of The City’s main business units regarding
their achievements, challenges and projects that they
will be undertaking. Many hours have been spent reviewing each portfolio, listening to presentations and
discussions with my Council colleagues. We spent many
more hours negotiating the budget for each business
unit, deciding what could be cut and what would be
staying, until we finally arrived at a final decision on the
2015-2018 budgets.
Thank you for participating in all of the events and engagement opportunities regarding Action Plan 20152018 over the past year! Your input helped us make
tough decisions regarding what programs and projects
would be funded.
Now that budget deliberations have ended, our focus is
turning to the upcoming winter and holiday season. The
