Rotary Interact Club of J. Percy Page School Spring Cleanup & School Planter Revitalization Environmental Project April 2019
 
The Rotary Interact Club of J. Percy Page School Environmental Project to rejuvenate the school planter boxes was in April , 2019.

The project involved over 30 Rotary Interact Club Members and 2 Teachers. It was great to see everyone working hard on a blue sky Alberta spring day.
 
They worked to clean up and refresh the planters they worked on last year, and to rejuvenate some other large planter boxes on the South and North sides of the school. They brought in, and distributed 3 truck loads of mulch for the planter beds to help maintain moisture and improve the planter soil conditions. They cleaned up, and plan to plant additional  perineal trees, shrubs, plants and grasses, and some annual flowers.

The planters are  a key feature to the entrances of the school, and will provide a nice backdrop to the upcoming graduation celebrations. The planter boxes also add a good home and feeding area for the bees and birds in the area.
 
The Rotary Interact Club appreciates the support of the Alberta Emerald Foundation and the Rotary Club of Edmonton Strathcona to make this environmental improvement project possible.

Good work on a job well done!

Cheers,
Eric
 
 
 
 
 
     
  
 
 
Someone in our club is $851 dollars richer!! Guess who?
If you attended our Christmas party this past December at the faculty club and bought some of those yellow 50/50 tickets from me, you could be the winner of  $851.
 
So dig out those tickets and check your numbers, the lucky winner will be the holder of
 
                                                 ticket number 7708123
 
...And the winner is HARALD KUCKERTZ -- who graciously surrendered the mulah to his wife Irene who had twisted Harald's arm to buy more tickets.

Free Footie Volunteers Needed: 2019 Spring Season
 
I am reaching out to your Rotary/Interact Club in efforts to find volunteers for the upcoming Spring Soccer Season.
 
Our organization is called Free Footie, and we provide an afterschool free soccer program. This upcoming season, we have 11 different game locations located throughout Edmonton with 60 schools participating and close to 2,000 kids playing.
Game Days are Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday from 3:45/4:00 PM – 4:45/5:00 PM.
Season runs from May 6 – June 21st.
 
The roles that we have available are Field MarshalReferees, and Coaches.
 
The Field Marshal responsibilities include:
  1. Arriving 15-20 minutes before first assigned game.
  2. Inspect field before play to ensure it is free of objects that might be a hazard.
  3. Direct teams to appropriate game field.
  4. Inspect field after play and address teams to clean up before leaving.
  5. Be emergency evacuation lead.
  6. Report any incidents or hazards to Volunteer Manager.
 
The Referee responsibilities include:
  1. Watch over the game and enforce fair play.
  2. Inspect player equipment and field equipment for safety hazards.
  3. Referee certification would be an asset but not required.
This is a perfect role for someone who is new to refereeing and looking to learn in a less-pressured environment. This position is paid.
 
The Coaches role is seen as mentor for the kids. Soccer experience isn’t necessary but we do look for volunteers who are looking to be a positive role model/mentor and have had experience with kids.
 
All volunteers will require a vulnerable sector check from the EPS.
 
It would be fantastic if you can share this with your members.
If anyone is interested, they can sign up HERE.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me.
 
Thank you for all your help,
