President’s Message<br />
As you know, the HPCA members voted to continue to<br />
lease our hall from the City <strong>and</strong> plan to arrange a sub-lease<br />
with another group provided we can get that all arranged by<br />
December 31 of this year.<br />
Having made this decision gives us certain rights, but<br />
it also dem<strong>and</strong>s of us certain responsibilities. Having our<br />
own community hall gives us the right to hold community<br />
events at the hall for little to no charge if we wish. Examples<br />
of these events would be dinners, family movies, Earth Day<br />
celebrations, BBQs, Music in the <strong>Park</strong>, meetings about<br />
development issues, Wine & Cheese events, etc.<br />
Anne Naumann<br />
However, our responsibilities that come with<br />
having our own hall include the repairs <strong>and</strong><br />
maintenance of the hall. And, because we are a nonprofi<br />
t volunteer-run organization we need to save<br />
money where we can by doing many of the hall<br />
maintenance <strong>and</strong> repair tasks with volunteers from<br />
the community doing the work <strong>and</strong> sourcing the<br />
supplies to do the work.<br />
So, from time to time we will ask for your help<br />
to do various tasks or help at a Work Bee. We’d<br />
like you to commit to helping where you can, <strong>and</strong><br />
maybe you can bring a neighbour or a relative to<br />
help as well. Th e old adage of “many h<strong>and</strong>s make<br />

Newsletter Delivery<br />
Concerns<br />
How often is the newsletter printed?<br />
Th e newsletter is published ten times<br />
per year. Two issues are combined<br />
month issues - July/August <strong>and</strong><br />
December/January.<br />
Where is the newsletter delivered?<br />
All homes, apartments <strong>and</strong> condos in<br />
your community should receive the<br />
newsletter.<br />
How is the newsletter delivered?<br />
Your community newsletter is delivered<br />
by Canada Post.<br />
Who pays for the delivery?<br />
Th e <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
Association pays for newsletter delivery.<br />
If I have a ‘no-fl yers’ sign on my mailbox<br />
how do I get the newsletter?<br />
<strong>Community</strong> newsletters are classifi ed as<br />
offi cial information <strong>and</strong>, as such, must<br />
be delivered by Canada Post to every<br />
address on every letter-carrier route.<br />
Th ere are no options for non-delivery<br />
of offi cial information mail-outs.<br />
If you don’t receive<br />
your newsletter...<br />
Your community association pays a lot<br />
of money for newsletter delivery but we<br />
need your help to monitor the delivery<br />
<strong>and</strong> to report delivery problems.<br />
If you, your friends or neighbours are<br />
not receiving the newsletter please<br />
follow these steps:<br />
1) Talk to your letter-carrier or leave a<br />
note or a sign on your mailbox politely<br />
insisting on delivery.<br />
2) Call Canada Post at 1-800-267-1177<br />
<strong>and</strong> politely insist they initiate a case<br />
fi le <strong>and</strong> reply to you with an explanation.<br />
Be persistent!<br />
3) E-mail ellisevansdesign@shaw.ca <strong>and</strong><br />
provide your address <strong>and</strong> postal code.<br />

light work” applies here. For example, tasks that might take 10 people 3 hours of time each<br />
would require 15 hours of time each if only 2 people step forward to volunteer. Th at’s a lot<br />
to ask of just 2 people!<br />
So, from the <strong>Community</strong> Association end, we’ll try to give as much notice <strong>and</strong> as many<br />
details as we can for tasks that need doing at the hall (<strong>and</strong> other volunteer opportunities such<br />
as serving on committees), <strong>and</strong> I hope that the next time we ask for volunteers to help out<br />
with something at the hall or with the Association that you’ll come out to contribute. Or if<br />
you’re not available at that time or for that task, ask if there’s something else you could do at<br />
a time that will fi t into your schedule.<br />
Check elsewhere in this newsletter for more information on how you can help your<br />
community association.<br />
In late September, several spots of graffi ti <strong>and</strong> tagging appeared in <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong>. Th e ones<br />
I became aware of have been reported to the City <strong>and</strong> have been discussed with our <strong>Calgary</strong><br />
Police Service <strong>Community</strong> Liaison Offi cer. Th e City advises that the best strategy for dealing<br />
with graffi ti when it occurs is to fi rst take a picture of it, make note of the address or closest<br />
intersection (i.e. SW corner of Centre St. <strong>and</strong> 40 Ave. NW), <strong>and</strong> report it to 3-1-1.<br />
If your property gets “tagged” you should clean it up as soon as possible by washing it off<br />
or painting over it. Th e idea is that if graffi ti is removed as soon as possible, the culprits won’t<br />
have the satisfaction of seeing their “tag” on display for long, <strong>and</strong> will therefore learn not to<br />
tag that location again.<br />
Finally, <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> has exp<strong>and</strong>ed our social media presence. On Facebook you can<br />
search under <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong>-<strong>Park</strong>-<strong>Community</strong>-Association-<strong>Calgary</strong>. It should pull up the HPCA<br />
logo as the accompanying picture. “Like” our page to get updates on things going on in your<br />

Ward 4 Update<br />
Wastewater Treatment in <strong>Calgary</strong><br />
Have you ever wondered what happens to the wastewater that<br />
drains from our sinks, tubs <strong>and</strong> toilets? It’s not a pleasant subject, but<br />
my curiosity got the better of me.<br />
I decided to see for myself how the City of <strong>Calgary</strong> h<strong>and</strong>les wastewater.<br />
After all, proper wastewater treatment is essential in protecting<br />
both public health <strong>and</strong> our environment.<br />
My staff <strong>and</strong> I toured the Pine Creek Wastewater Treatment Centre,<br />
one of three plants that treat over 430 megalitres of wastewater daily.<br />
The treatment process includes screening out larger solids, settling<br />
tanks, <strong>and</strong> using naturally occurring microorganisms instead of<br />
chemicals to remove organic matter. Filtration systems remove more<br />
impurities <strong>and</strong> ultraviolet techniques disinfect. Biosolids created during<br />
the process are used as fertilizer on local farml<strong>and</strong>s, <strong>and</strong> methane<br />
gas collected is used to heat the building.<br />
The innovative <strong>and</strong> earth-friendly processes used impressed me so<br />
much; I posted a video of our tour on my websites. It was definitely a<br />
learning experience that, once again, reminded me of the important<br />
role the City plays in our daily lives.<br />
Wastewater treatment is not a pretty topic but it is an important<br />

Centre Street Construction – Update<br />
The Centre Street Reconstruction <strong>and</strong> Transit Priority Project between<br />
42 Avenue <strong>and</strong> 54 Avenue N.W. began on July 4. The project<br />
team intends to complete the reconstruction of the road bed <strong>and</strong> the<br />
new Transit only lanes by late fall (late November or early December).<br />
However, road construction is very weather sensitive <strong>and</strong> fall<br />
weather can be unpredictable. Therefore, when the road construction<br />
season ends, all lanes on Centre Street <strong>and</strong> access to side roads will<br />
be restored for the winter. Any work that may not be completed this<br />
year will be carried over until next spring/summer, if necessary.<br />
Construction began on the west half of Centre Street between 42<br />
Avenue <strong>and</strong> Laycock Drive N.W. This west side construction was<br />
extended to 54 Avenue N.W. in August. This work reduced the road<br />
to two lanes of traffic on the east side. These stages of construction<br />
are now complete.<br />
In the middle of October, construction will have fully shifted to<br />
the east side of Centre Street, between 42 Avenue <strong>and</strong> 54 Avenue<br />
N.W. <strong>and</strong> traffic will be moved to the west side of Centre. Some lanes<br />
<strong>and</strong> driveways will need to be closed at Centre Street in order to complete<br />
this stage of construction. Affected residents <strong>and</strong> businesses will<br />
receive h<strong>and</strong>-delivered notices of any closures. As sections of road are<br />
completed, they will be reopened to traffic.<br />
Some <strong>Calgary</strong> Transit stops will be temporarily re-located or closed<br />
as a result of construction.<br />
Because of ongoing lane reductions, motorists <strong>and</strong> Transit users<br />
should expect traffic delays to continue through this area until the<br />
end of the construction season in late fall. When the construction is<br />
6 <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> <strong>Community</strong> News<br />
November 2012
done, the road will be completely re-built in this area, sidewalks will<br />
be wider, <strong>and</strong> the added Transit-only lanes will improve bus traffic<br />
movement through this area.<br />
We underst<strong>and</strong> that road work is an inconvenience to everyone<br />
<strong>and</strong> we appreciate your continuing patience <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing during<br />
this project.<br />
Maps of the construction area <strong>and</strong> a video of what the finished<br />
road will look like are available online at www.calgary.ca/centrestreet.<br />
All project updates will also be posted here.<br />

Campbell’s Labels<br />
for Education Program<br />
Does your family use Campbell’s soups? Or Goldfish crackers?<br />
Or Prego pasta sauce? Or Pace salsa? Or drink V8? If so, you can<br />
help Buchanan school earn supplies such as gym equipment, books,<br />
or educational DVDs for our library with the Campbell’s Labels for<br />
Education Program!<br />
How does it work?<br />
1) You keep the whole label, or just the lid, or cut out the UPC code<br />
of the product (see details below for each participating product).<br />
2) Bring it to the school <strong>and</strong> drop it in the Campbell’s Labels for<br />
Did you know…<br />
You can compost your fall leaves <strong>and</strong> your pumpkins in either your<br />
own compost bin or at one of the City of <strong>Calgary</strong>’s leaf <strong>and</strong> pumpkin<br />
composting locations. The locations closest to <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> are<br />
at: Huntington Hills Athletic <strong>Park</strong> at Hunstrom Drive <strong>and</strong> 4 St.<br />
NE, or Confederation <strong>Park</strong> at 905 30 Ave. NW, or North Haven<br />
<strong>Community</strong> Centre at 5003 North Haven Dr. NW. Check the City<br />
of <strong>Calgary</strong> website, www.calgary.ca for more information <strong>and</strong> search<br />
for leaf <strong>and</strong> pumpkin composting. These locations are not meant for<br />
other yard waste. The locations are accepting leaves <strong>and</strong> pumpkins<br />
from now until November 11th.<br />
<strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> has a new <strong>Calgary</strong> Police Service (CPS) <strong>Community</strong><br />
Liaison Officer (CLO). The boundaries for the communities Marv<br />
Glaser is looking after have been changed, so the new CLO looking<br />
after <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> will be Will Johnson. Thanks for everything<br />
Marv, <strong>and</strong> we’re looking forward to working with you Will!<br />
Education bin just inside the West entrance to Buchanan school, or<br />
call Anne Naumann (number below) of the Buchanan Parent Association<br />
to drop them off with her.<br />
3) Each label is worth 1 point, <strong>and</strong> once we have enough points,<br />
we can trade them in for things the school can use.<br />
4) Ask your friends or other family members to save up their labels<br />
for you too! The more labels we can get, the more points we can earn,<br />
the more stuff we can get!<br />
Thanks everyone!<br />

Georges P Vanier School<br />
Every September in schools across the nation, hundreds of thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of students run to raise funds for the fight against cancer. The<br />
last school day of September saw hundreds of Georges P. Vanier students<br />
run for this cause.<br />
Georges P. Vanier has been working with the City of <strong>Calgary</strong> to develop<br />
programs to enhance the student experience. Four programs are<br />
now in full swing. Konnects seeks to help with the transition to grade<br />
7 from elementary school. Act Out for our grade 8 is an innovative<br />
school-based program for junior high age youth which uses drama as<br />
a way to learn, grow <strong>and</strong> deal with tough situations <strong>and</strong> life choices.<br />
The same issues are taken on in grade with the Spirit Girls program<br />
<strong>and</strong> the Wize Guyz program. The Wize Guyz program at Georges P.<br />
Vanier was featured in the Globe & Mail last spring.<br />
November will be exciting at Georges P. Vanier: Volleyball playoff<br />
<strong>and</strong> the start of Basketball. Report cards go home on November 23rd,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the fall term assembly is taking place at 12:30 on Nov 28th in<br />
the gymnasium.<br />
Buchanan Elementary<br />
AREA SCHOOL NEWS<br />
Students had a very busy month in October. The clubs are in<br />
full swing: YMCA Leadership Club, Computer Club <strong>and</strong> Green<br />

the school to see the changes that fall brings to the plants. The Book<br />
Fair was held <strong>and</strong> school photos taken.<br />
The grade 5/6 class visited Fish Creek <strong>Park</strong> while grade 4/5 students<br />
went to the Museum of the Regiments. Students in the Skill<br />
classes began their swimming lessons at Emily Follensbee School. The<br />

James Fowler High School<br />
The staff of James Fowler have planned an excit-<br />
ing, productive <strong>and</strong> engaging school year <strong>and</strong> it is our<br />
wish that all of our students will take full advantage<br />
of all the wonderful <strong>and</strong> rich opportunities that the<br />
school community has to offer.<br />
Our enrollment this year is approximately fifteen<br />
hundred students (an increase of one hundred students<br />
from the previous year). Most of our students<br />
travel from many northeast neighborhoods <strong>and</strong> a<br />
few of the newly developed northwest communities<br />
in addition to the communities surrounding James<br />
Fowler. As a result of our increase in students, we<br />
have been supported by <strong>Calgary</strong> Transit who has added an additional<br />
bus <strong>and</strong> re-routed existing bus routes to better service our students.<br />
In its fifth year, our Arts-Centered Learning alternative program<br />
continues to offer students an opportunity to learn the core high<br />
school curriculum through an arts-based focus. In its third year, our<br />
Advanced Placement program continues to attract many students<br />
who wish more academic rigor while completing the core high school<br />
12 <strong>Highl<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>Park</strong> <strong>Community</strong> News<br />
November 2012
curriculum. We are also pleased to off er a full range of core <strong>and</strong> option<br />
Knowledge <strong>and</strong> Employability courses for students in all grades.<br />
At James Fowler it is our goal to meet the educational needs of all<br />
of our students <strong>and</strong> also to improve our facility for our students. As<br />
such we have installed thirty new cafeteria tables <strong>and</strong> have installed<br />
two new counters where students can eat their lunch or study. Also<br />
we have updated our library bookshelves <strong>and</strong> have created a student<br />
study space. As we continue to improve the facility at James Fowler<br />
High School for our students, we are focused on creating a more<br />
student-focused space infused with color <strong>and</strong> energy.<br />
Fall is both an exciting <strong>and</strong> busy time at James Fowler High School<br />
as we focus on the start of the fi rst semester. Teachers have created<br />
opportunities to take students beyond the classroom experience by<br />
off ering a full range of co-curricular <strong>and</strong> extra-curricular activities<br />
through clubs, fi ne <strong>and</strong> performing arts, volunteerism, athletics <strong>and</strong><br />
curriculum-based clubs <strong>and</strong> activities. Whether students are a new<br />
grade ten student, a new student to James Fowler or a continuing<br />
grade eleven <strong>and</strong> twelve student, we actively encourage all students to<br />
get involved in the community of the school <strong>and</strong> become involved in<br />
as many activities as possible.<br />
Our School Council provides an excellent opportunity for parents<br />
<strong>and</strong> guardians to learn about the school <strong>and</strong> to have a voice in the<br />
education our children. School Council meetings are held the fi rst<br />
Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. in the library conference<br />
room. If you are a parent of a James Fowler High School student, we<br />
would welcome your attendance <strong>and</strong> support at our monthly meetings.<br />
We are appreciative of our very supportive parents on our School<br />
Council who are committed to improving our school. Last year, in<br />
addition to our School Council members, parents volunteered their<br />
time over two days at a Casino to raise funds for our students. With<br />
this generous donation to our school last year, we were able to purchase<br />
a new 2013 Bluebird 65 passenger bus. Th is year our casino<br />
is scheduled for November 4 <strong>and</strong> 5. If you are a parent of a James<br />
Fowler student <strong>and</strong> would like to assist our parents with this Casino,<br />
please contact the school.<br />
We are excited to have full service technical shops that are available<br />
to our community. If you have a need for service in Autobody, Auto<br />
Mechanics, Cosmetology or catering from our Commercial Foods<br />
program, please contact the school.<br />
Please feel free to view our school website at www.cbe.ab.ca/b825<br />
or contact us at 403-230-4743.<br />
As the Principal of James Fowler High School, I am extremely excited<br />
about the 2012/2013 school term <strong>and</strong> look forward to serving<br />
the school community by helping every student achieve success in<br />
many diff erent ways. I am very proud of our staff of teachers, support<br />
staff <strong>and</strong> facility operators who are here to help our children be successful<br />
during their years of high school. James Fowler High School<br />
is a “great place to learn.”<br />
