Snow Angels
It's that time of year when sometimes your neighbors need help shoveling snow.
Will you be a snow angel to someone? To be a Snow Angel, all you need to do is shovel snow for a person in need in your neighbourhood. Your efforts will help create a safer community for everyone and will help people meet their responsibility to remove ice and snow from their sidewalks within 48 hours of snowfall. And, if you have had someone help you, say thanks to your volunteer by nominating them as snow angels. 
Winter is on its way, and The City of Edmonton is planning for an exciting season of our new program, Front Yards in Bloom: Winterscapes! Let's celebrate winter in our city by creating and nominating winterscapes in our neighbourhoods! About Winterscapes Winterscapes is family-friendly program in which all Edmonton residents, including community leagues, businesses and schools, can participate. You can also nominate your or someone else's winterscape for an award by taking a photo and submitting it online this January. Submitted nominations will be entered into a Weekly Prize Draw for some cool prizes. This winter, why not include winterscaping as a fun activity during your league's winter festival, or advertise the program as a fun way for families to get outside and create a beautiful winter yard in your neighbourhood? All you need is your imagination and: - some cold weather - a bit of snow/ice for building and shaping - you can also add plant materials, colour, tree ornaments, even a bird feeder, or winter lights. Please visit our website for more program details: www.edmonton.ca/winterscapes |
