\u00a0CORE TO RE-START THE CLUB<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Thank you for your patience over the past two months, while the club adhered to government guidelines, and cancelled all activities and meetings. Now that the Alberta government has re-opened the provincial parks and has announced that groups of up to 50 people can gather in the outdoors (while maintaining such practices as social distancing), CORE can slowly begin to re-start the club.<\/span><\/p>\n

The newly elected CORE executive is currently creating procedures and guidelines for its members and coordinators on how, as a group, we need to proceed on future CORE hikes\/events. The executive is working towards June 15, for a phased-in start-up of events.<\/strong><\/em> With this target in mind, if there are any complications, or the province of Alberta mandates different requirements, the organization may have to push this date out further. This situation is in a constant fluid motion, due to the pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Valley Ridge Community Parking Lot<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

CORE uses the Valley Ridge Community parking lot for car pooling. CORE has been asked by the community association, when we leave our vehicles at this parking lot, to park near the east end of the lot. By the entrance to the parking lot. This is to increase safety for the “in and out” skaters accessing their gate near the west end of the lot.\u00a0 The two\u00a0outdoor arena’s, above this community parking lot, creates heavy vehicle and foot traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n
