Long wedding veils have been a trend for many years; how-ever, the length of these veils often

varies, and some are much longer than others. How long, do you ask? Well, the Guinness World Record for the longest veil is 23,000 feet, which is more than

63 football fields in length.

So Many Ways to Support Fish Creek Provincial Park!Capture Nature – Photography Contest - May 1 to July 31The Capture Nature Photo Contest is a creative way of enjoying the beauty and inspiration of Fish Creek Pro-vincial Park. It’s a good-spirited competition for all ages and levels of photography, and a great excuse to visit the park on a regular basis. This year’s themes are A Bug’s Eye View, Power and Grace, and Weather or Not. We know the themes are a bit challenging, and we hope they will encourage you to look at and connect with the park in a different way. All photos must be taken in Fish Creek Pro-vincial Park and can be submitted at any point during the contest, but the earlier the better! The public will be able to vote for their favourite photos through our online gal-lery, so early submissions will have more time to collect votes! Visit the Friends’ website for more contest fees and info, to find out prize details, contest rules and regula-tions, and to register! Many thanks to our contest spon-sors for their generous donations of contest prizes: MEC, RMB Photography and Vistek. https://friendsoffishcreek.org/programs/capturenature.

Shaw Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLinkSupport Outdoor Education in Fish Creek and Your Do-nation will be Matched Up to 50%!Shaw Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink (BFK) is a truly amazing program that helps to raise funds for children throughout Alberta. BFK runs in conjunction with the Shaw Charity Classic, taking place August 24 to 30 at Canyon Meadows Golf and Country Club. Through BFK, your dona-

tion will be matched up to 50% and your contribution can go even further. We are very grateful that the Friends of Fish Creek and our Learning Naturally program has once again been chosen as one of more than 200 Alberta charities to participate in Birdies for Kids this year. Birdies for Kids will support the Friends’ Learning Naturally program, which in-cludes TD Learning Naturally. TD Learning Naturally helps provide over 4700 children each year with a life-changing field trip to Fish Creek Provincial Park. Students in the TD Learning Naturally program attend economically disadvan-taged schools in Calgary and may not have the opportuni-ty to visit Fish Creek were it not for Learning Naturally. This essential program does not receive regular funding and we rely on ongoing donations from community members and organizations. Please talk to your friends, family members and even your employer about contributing this year. To donate, or for more information, contact the Friends or visit https://friendsoffishcreek.org/event/birdies.

Park Protectors NeededBecome a Fish Creek Provincial Park Protector and help the Friends of Fish Creek uphold our vision of a sustainable Fish Creek Provincial Park that improves the quality of life for current and future generations. As an alternative to annual membership renewals, the Park Protector program may suit your busy lifestyle a little better. As a Park Protector, you can make monthly donations to the Friends of Fish Creek, which are automatically withdrawn from a credit card. A steady, re-liable source of funding will enable the Friends to continue with ongoing field work, raise awareness about the park, and organize and participate in community outreach ac-tivities. Park Protectors never have to worry about keeping donations or membership up to date and will receive one tax receipt a year. For more information please visit https://www.friendsoffishcreek.org/park-protector-signup.

Phase 4 Bricks are Going Fast! Leave a Lasting Legacy and Show Your Support for Fish Creek Provincial Park.

There are fewer than 25 bricks available in the fourth and final phase of the Friends Brick Pathway. This program be-gan in 2017 to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Friends of Fish Creek. You may have seen these bricks in front of the Cookhouse at the Bow Valley Ranch in Fish Creek Provincial Park, or dedicated one yourself. If you did not get a chance to dedicate a brick, now is a great time to dedicate one of the remaining bricks. Bricks are only $250 each and you will receive a valuable tax receipt for your donation. A brick would also make an amazing gift for anyone who enjoys visiting Fish Creek Provincial Park and would like to see it protected and preserved. For more information, please visit https://friendsoffishcreek.org/brick.

BRAESIDE STORIES

by Irena Karshenbaum

Braeside Community Centre, or the Hall, as how it is also known, has a very interesting history. Originally built in 1967, it was constructed by volunteer contractors who were liv-ing and working in Braeside. Unfortu-nately, their names have been lost to history as even long-term director of construction and maintenance, Bob Byers, who has been in the role for over 20 years and remembers meet-ing some of them years ago, sadly, doesn’t remember their names.

Bob Byers recounts hearing how the Braeside contractors got together to construct the “old” Hall, the part where Braeside Before and After Child Care is today. Bob explains the

old Hall did not have any drawings, “They had a rough idea of what they wanted and sketched it out on pieces of paper.”

Bob retells the story, “The main con-tractor who was building the old part got called away for a job in Lethbridge. By the time he came back the other contractor he was working with put a roof on the building without realizing that there was supposed to be a sec-ond floor there.” Bob laughs saying that was probably a good thing because had they built a second floor there might not have been the “new” Hall. The addition to the building where the Upper and Lower Hall is today was built around 1974, although Bob can’t give an exact date. Bob adds another inter-esting bit to the story that the City of Calgary has the drawings to the new Hall, but can’t find them.

Bob continues, “The volunteer contrac-tors did a great job as the building is still standing and has served the com-munity well.”

This story illustrates how Braeside has a Hall because of the selfless giving of its volunteers. The giving continues to this day.

Even though Braeside Community Cen-tre has been ordered to close during the COVID-19 pandemic, the volunteer board of directors of Braeside Com-munity Association have been working hard and have given selflessly of their time to not only provide advocacy and management for the community cen-tre, but are also doing critically impor-tant work to improve the building.

BCA president, Robert Grigg, explains, “We needed new lighting (LED and dimmer switches) for energy savings and to upgrade the aesthetic look of

the Upper Hall. Next, we replaced the furnaces because they needed to be re-placed after many years of good service and they are more energy efficient. The new furnaces have an efficiency rating of 96.1%. This should be saving us a lot of money in energy costs.” Robert says that the BCA board is evaluating the flooring and hoping for the new floor-ing to be installed around mid June.

The funding for these projects came from the City of Calgary and Govern-ment of Alberta grants. The grants, which required extensive work, were written by volunteer BCA board mem-bers.

All this work on the building is abso-lutely necessary for the long-term sus-tainability of the Hall so that it can be a warm and comfortable place for the community to meet.

Robert Grigg also recently sent out a survey, using SurveyMonkey, and thanks all the people who took the time to reply. Results will be shared with the community once they are compiled. BCA is also working on launching its website.

Robert explains, “We don’t know when the Hall will be reopened. We are wait-ing for instructions from the City of Calgary on that. We are also waiting for instructions when child care can open, that go ahead comes from the Prov-ince.”

Even with the passage of time some things remain the same. The Braeside Hall is at the heart of the neighbour-hood because of the selfless giving of the volunteer BCA board of directors.
