YMCA Calgary Centre for Newcomers ModernEvolution YMCA Camp Riveredge Mount Royal University YMCA of Greater Vancouver Thank you to our sponsors who enabled so many to attend the ActiveCITY Summit. October 15, 2019 Dear Friends, Thank you for participating in the inaugural ActiveCITY Summit. As a result you are now part of the ActiveCITY Collective which is a collaboration of not-for-profit, for- profit and public-sector organizations and individuals engaged in Calgary’s regional active economy. Our shared objective is to collaborate, debate, learn and connect to shape system wide solutions. The Summit was just our first step. Our ultimate goal is transforming Calgary into Canada’s most livable region by maximizing the potential of our natural competitive advantage – the active economy. For too long, our active economy has been simply a sum of its parts. The ActiveCITY Collective is focusing on improving collaboration and connectivity that will result in a more efficient and effective system. A system that leverages our natural advantages – people and place. This report is a summary of the input and feedback from the ActiveCITY Summit. But as we said, this is only the start. The most common question we have been asked is – “what can I do now” and we have tried to answer that in the final section, with our call to action. Over the next year, the ActiveCITY Collective, with your leadership, will engage a minimum of 65,000 Calgarian’s to develop an ActiveCITY Playbook – a collective vision and framework for maximizing the potential of our active economy and to transform Calgary into Canada’s most livable region. The final section of this report provides a roadmap on how you can help lead the transformation of our ActiveCITY Collective. This report thus includes: Section 1: Thinking Different: Exploring Calgary’s Active Economy Section 2: Acting Differently: Shaping the Future of Calgary’s Active Economy Section 3: A Call to Action. Your Turn to Lead. Appendix: Participants and Raw Notes Finally, we must recognize the real rocket fuel of our active economy – the amazing ActiveCITY volunteers, including our Mount Royal University students. The ActiveCITY Summit would have not been possible without their support Thank you again for your ongoing support!

  • 25 Avenue SE LRT Grade Separation Study Phase
    25 Avenue S.E. LRT Grade Separation Study Phase One: Education & Issues Scoping Stakeholder Report Back: What we heard Winter 2017 Project overview The City of Calgary is conducting a functional planning study of 25 Avenue S.E. and the Red Line LRT tracks crossing. This study will develop a recommended grade separation plan for the Red Line LRT tracks and 25 Avenue S.E. It will also identify short-term improvements in the study area. The final recommended plan will improve travel through this area for people driving, walking, cycling and taking transit. Phase one engagement overview The Engage Spectrum level for phase one of our engagement for this project is Listen and Learn, which is defined as, “We will listen to stakeholders and learn about their plans, views, issues, concerns, expectations and ideas.” We will listen to and learn from the ideas and concerns of the community, as they relate to the study area. We will learn about community priorities, which will help us develop the evaluation criteria that will be used to assess options for grade separation and short-term improvements. The engagement events and tactics for phase one included: - An in-person open house held on Tuesday, February 28, from 5:00 – 8:00 pm at Repsol Sport Centre. 68 people attended the event. - An online survey was available from February 27 through March 13 at calgary.ca/25avestudy where 45 people provide responses. - The project team also participated in the Inglewood/ Ramsay Project coordination events on March 9 and 11, where we talked with 150 residents over the two nights.

  • ISU Speed Skating Season 2019/20
    November 12, 2019 Lausanne, Switzerland The 2019/20 season will be one for the fast and the furious In 2019/20 Speed Skating will be faster than it has ever been. The season builds up to a climax at the ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships on the fastest ice on earth in Salt Lake City in February. The six world records during last season's ISU World Cup Speed Skating finals at the Utah Olympic Oval, were just a prelude to what's yet to come. The 2019/20 season also has a couple of novelties in store. Milwaukee, USA, will host the first ever ISU Four Continents Championships in Speed Skating, Hamar will be home to the first ever combined ISU World Allround and ISU World Sprint Speed Skating Championships, and at the ISU World Cup Speed Skating Final in Heerenveen there will be a first ever mixed gender relay as demonstration event. The Junior Speed Skaters are looking forward to the 2020 Winter Youth Olympic Games in Lausanne in January. Early season form The season kicks-off with the first of six legs in the ISU World Cup Speed Skating in Minsk, Belarus, on November 15-17. Most skaters have already skated competitively beforehand, however. ISU World Allround Speed Skating champion Patrick Roest (NED) showed early season form when he broke the track record in the men's 10,000m (12:42.97) at the Dutch World Cup trials in Heerenveen on November 3. 1000m ISU World Speed Skating Champion Kai Verbij (NED) also impressed with a track record in the 1000m (1:07.48).

  • This Season Combines the New and The
    November 13, 2018 Lausanne, Switzerland This season combines the new and the old After the exciting PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games last February, a new generation of long track Speed Skaters is gearing up to challenge the reigning champions in the next Olympiad. The 2018/19 season has a lot of variety to offer: outdoor ISU European Speed Skating Championships in Collalbo, ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships at the Max Aicher Arena in German Inzell, ISU World Sprint Speed Skating Championships in Dutch Speed Skating Mekka Heerenveen, and a North American season climax with ISU World Allround Speed Skating Championships in Calgary and ISU World Cup Speed Skating final in Salt Lake City. Kramer chases 10th European and World Allround titles Since 2017 the format of the ISU European Speed Skating Championships alternates and last year saw the inaugural European Championships with a single distances format. This season the Championships will be Allround and will be held in Collalbo. The Italian town has hosted the European Allround Championships twice in the past, first in 2007, when 21-year-old Dutchman Sven Kramer won his first European title. In 2019 he will be aiming at his tenth European Allround title. The World Single Distances Championships will visit Inzell for the second time in history. The first time, in 2005, the Championships were held at the outdoor Ludwig Schwabl Stadion, which was roofed in to become the Max Aicher Arena in 2011. Olympic 500-meter champion Håvard Holmefjord Lorentzen (NOR) and Olympic 1000-meter champion Jorien ter Mors (NED) will defend their 2018 World Sprint titles in Heerenveen, which hosts the World Sprint Championships for the sixth time.
