November Executive Meeting

The Meadowgreen Community Association Executive met this evening and widdled the list of potential signs for the corner of Witney Avenue and 22nd Street down to three potential signs. The three signs will be available for viewing at the next CA meeting on December 14th. After that meeting more information will be forthcoming as to how the Executive plans to proceed with public input into the sign process and a major fund raising initiative for the sign.

At the same time, the Executive is looking further into a commemmorative marker for the old site of W.P. Bate school. The saved bricks from the demolished school have been located and the Executive will look for the old school marker to see if it can be incorporated in the commemmorative marker in the now called "Dutchak Park". More details will be coming.

As the weather continues to be cold the Meadowgreen Community Association rink may be available for skating in early December. Stay tuned here for when it will be available for public skating and supervised skating hours.

The next MCA newsletter will be out in January if you have information for the newsletter please contact Brad Peters, Newsletter editor.

MCA October Director's Meeting

The Executive met on October 25th to discuss the plans for the new term. The main goal is to move forward on the "Meadowgreen Welcomes You" sign for the corner of 22nd Street and Witney Ave. Hopefully at the November meeting a short list of potential signs will be created. As well, the Executive hopes to put up a commemorative plaque at the old W.P. Bate School site on Ottawa Ave. Bricks were saved from the demolished school and it is hoped that they will be used in this project.

The Executive will endeavor to operate the rink this winter and it is hoping to find a sponsor to help defray the costs since the City of Saskatoon's grant of $1000. does not cover the cost of running the rink.
