Hello wonderful community members,
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED:
Thursday May 7, Friday May 8 and Saturday May 9- Community Garage Sale
This event is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year and it takes many helpers in order to be successful. Volunteers on Thursday evening will be helping set up the tables in the hall. Volunteers on Friday will be helping community members unload donations from their cars and sorting them in the hall. Volunteers on Saturday will be helping with the sale and cleanup. Please email garage sale chairperson, Arlene, at aljelfs@googlemail. com if you are able to help.
Saturday May 30- Rink Board Removal
Thanks to a generous grant from the Daryl K Seaman Hockey Fund at the Calgary Foundation, our beloved community rink is getting new boards! This will be an exciting, and much needed, functional and safety upgrade for year round rink use. But before that can happen, the old boards need to come down and we are looking for volunteers to help with that. Some notes:
- Please bring a drill with batteries/ chargers (proper bits provided)
- Volunteers must be at least 15 years of age
- Lunch will be provided for volunteers (12-1pm)
- Shift 1 (9am-12:30pm), Shift 2 (12:30pm-4pm)
- The old arena boards will be for sale on a first come, first served basis. Please contact priddishockey@gmail.com to express your interest

Thank you for considering giving back to your community through volunteering.

Indoor Pickleball
Thank you to everyone who came out and enjoyed this program over the winter. Our indoor pickleball court is now closed and we are excited to be able to start playing on our beautiful outdoor courts soon. A friendly reminder that users of the outdoor pickleball courts must have a PCA membership and the courts are available on a first come, first served basis. The nets must be taken up and put away by players after each use. Please keep glass, pets, skateboards, bikes and scooters off the courts.
Youth Ball Hockey
We are looking to gauge interest in a youth drop in ball hockey program this summer. This would be a grassroots, sticks in the middle, once a week opportunity for community members. We are also looking for some local teenagers who would be interested in helping to manage the program. Please send expressions of interest to jillianaguitar@gmail.com
Martial Arts
The new community martial arts program will be continuing in May. There are classes for all ages offered either once or twice a week (Mondays and Wednesdays) at the Priddis Community Hall. Please email yus84635@gmail.com for more information or to register.
