Week in Review:

I’m pleased to announce that there will be three new bus shelters installed in Kanata South this summer. The locations of the shelters will be announced in next week’s column.

I participated in McHappy Day at McDonald’s on May 8^th at both their Terry Fox/Hazeldean and Stonehaven locations.

Katimavik Elementary School is becoming a Grade 4-8 school next year, as a result the school needed to pick a new logo.  Students from the different schools that will be attending Katimavik next year joined together at an assembly to conclude the competition to select the new logo.  I was pleased to join the ceremony announcing the winning selection, and join with students in fellowship as they met their future classmates.  Thank you to Alex MacDonald for all your help escorting me around your beautiful school today.

Cleaning the Capital:

I have been pleased to have the opportunity to join so many community groups and residents as they held their own Cleaning the Capital events this spring.  I attended the clean-ups at Deevy Pines, Cattail Creek, Beaton Park, Young’s Pond, Hewitt Park, and Ravine Park.  I also attended clean-ups held by The Kanata Food Cupboard, the Kanata Youth Haven, Glen Cairn School, St. James Catholic School, St. Anne Catholic School, and Holy Redeemer Catholic School.

If you held a Spring Cleaning the Capital event between April 15 and May 15 remember to register it with the City of Ottawa at Ottawa.ca/clean or by calling 3-1-1 for your chance to win one of the many prizes available.  Let’s help make sure Kanata South is the Cleaning the Capital leader again this year!
