VOLUNTEERS REQUIRED FOR THE 20/21 SKATING SEASON!
IF YOU HAVE TIME TO HELP OUT DOWN AT THE RINK PLEASE CONTACT THE DRCA DIRECTLY. WITH THE COLDER TEMPERATURES, WE CAN ONLY MAKE ICE IF WE HAVE ENOUGH VOLUNTEERS!

Congratulations to Sean and Judy, the winners of the DRCA membership draw. In light of the current COVID restrictions the DRCA has offered the winners their choice of movie tickets or a $25 gift card each to Javino. Both winners were happy to support our local business as much as they support the DRCA! Thank you to all those who purchased their $25 DRCA memberships and for supporting our wonderful community! If you have not yet purchased your 20/21 DRCA membership please do so online at discoveryridge.com/membership.

Thank you to all who entered our Halloween Picture Contest! Our first winner was Ruphinder with her kids dressed as Mavis from Hotel Transylvania, Darth Vader and Cookie monster. Our second winner was Shannon with her dog getting into the Halloween spirit!

Starting October 13, the Discovery Ridge regular transit routes were replaced with the new Calgary Transit On Demand program. Click the link below to see the service area map and instructions on how to book a ride.

7 Trucks to Choose From! Skip a night of cooking dinner or come down for a treat on Thursday, September 24th (4:30-7:30pm)! We may not have been able to have our usual DRCA events this year due to COVID restrictions but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been working hard on other fun ideas and we are pleased to be bringing YYC Food Trucks to our Recreation Facility area on the 24th. Bring the family down and purchase meals or treats to go from the truck of your choice! There will be space on the grass to throw down a blanket and eat there, if you prefer. Participating Food Trucks: Family Dogs, Happy Fish, Take It & Go, Calgary Mini-Donuts, Canadian Bear Balls, The Nut Man & Family Squeezed Lemonade.

TENNIS COURT RULES DURING COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS

1. Only singles play is permitted – maximum 2 players per court and 4 people inside tennis court fence at any time.
2. All facility users are responsible to adhere to any applicable physical distancing guidelines. This applies both on-court and while waiting. Maintain 2-meter separation at all times.
3. Players must not handle the same tennis ball. Each player must provide a minimum of 2 identifiable balls which they will serve with through the entire match.
4. Tennis courts and facilities / equipment are not cleaned and all facility users are advised to take any appropriate precautions.
5. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. The Discovery Ridge Community Association is not responsible for supervising this facility and assumes no liability for risks you are assuming by using it, including the potential increased risk of exposure to COVID-19.

Please adhere to these rules to help reduce the risk of COVID-19 spread while also allowing community residents the opportunity to engage in healthy activity.

The DRCA reserves the right and may be directed at any time to close the tennis courts should users not comply with posted rules and physical distancing guidelines.

Our community has been scheduled to be swept MAY 8. Trucks and crews will be in the neighbourhood between 8:00AM and 4:00PM. Click HERE for more information from the City of Calgary. Please ensure your vehicle is off the street so that all stones can be swept up!

We invite you to participate in the 1st (and we hope only) Annual –
Social Distancing Easter Egg Hunt

Print our a few Easter Egg patterns that you can easily find on the internet (here is a LINK if you wish) . You or your children are encouraged to colour as many eggs as you wish and then hide them in your window or even your yard – get creative! Make sure they are there by Saturday night!

This Sunday, April 12, we invite you to take a walk (with appropriate social distancing!) through the community, take a few pictures and a tally of all the eggs you find! Once you’re finished your hunt, email your favourite picture and your number of eggs to volunteer@discoveryridge.com

The top two households with the largest number of found eggs will win a
$25 gift certificate to either Javino or Maharajah.
All entries must be in by 5:00PM on April 12. 
(This contest will be on the honour system!)

HAVE FUN and STAY SAFE!
