Registration for the 2012 youth soccer season is now underway. We are currently accepting registrations for children whose families are interested in coaching or assistant coaching. Our enrollment will be limited based on the number of coaches who volunteer. Last year we had a very successful season with enough coaches to sponsor over 700 kids playing soccer on over 75 teams. Please consider coaching or assistant coaching your child’s team. There is no experience necessary, coaching clinics will be provided and it is a very rewarding volunteer experience. Coaching family registration runs from February 1@ 9:00am until February 8 @ 6:00 pm. Open registration runs from February 15 @9:00am until February 28 @ 6:00pm or until all teams are full. Please visit our website to register: http://soccer.tuscanyca.ca
As a large and thriving community, traffic safety and parking sensibly continue to be two major issues faced in our community. But is there cause for concern? Some of our community members think so. We have two examples from right here in Tuscany to share with you.
The City of Calgary is planning for four new recreation facilities in Calgary’s most underserved areas – one in the far northwest and three in the southeast. Each site will have amenities designed to meet the specific needs of their area. Citizen engagement is a critical part of this process and your input, into what should be included in these facilities, is being sought. If you would like to provide your thoughts to the City, we encourage you to visit the URL below and complete the online survey. A public open house will also be held on September 15th for those interested in attending (details are in the link below). http://www.calgary.ca/CSPS/Recreation/Pages/Research-and-development/P3-NW-SE.aspx?redirect=%2Fnewreccentres

On June 12, over 400 talented community members came to paint a canvas, eat some hot dogs and meet their neighbours. The Tuscany Community Association would like to thank Sobeys for sponsoring the barbecue and all the kids, parents and grandparents who attended the event. Look for your art to be displayed in the next couple of weeks on the fence of the middle school. In order for us to best serve our community, we want to hear from you. Post your comments to these two questions:

It is time for you to have your say. Sponsored by the Federation of Calgary Communities, the 2011 Calgary Neighbourhood Survey is now available at www.calgarycommunities.com. It is a short survey that you can fill out online that will help all of the not-for-profit organizations that support communities in Calgary. This year there are ten $200 gift certificates that you will be entered into a draw for, just for taking five minutes to fill out the survey. Plus you will help to make Calgary a place that everyone is proud to call home. If you think that Calgary is a neighbourly place, or if you feel your community can be improved, check out the survey here. Everyone’s opinion is important!
