To whom it may concern:
The development of the green space between Transcona Collegiate, Radisson School, and John Gunn School is an excellent planned addition to the Transcona area.
This investment into Transcona’s recreational infrastructure would help meet the needs of area residents and children.
It is always of great benefit to a local neighbourhood when parks and recreational facilities are developed. Jim understands and values the importance of sport and recreation for area families.
Russ Wyatt, city councillor for Transcona has been a great advocate of the project. The local media has reported on the efforts to revitalize the greens pace with fondness, and community members have voiced their support to this office.
Sincerely,
Dale Edmunds Member’s Assistant to Jim Maloway Member of Parliament for Elmwood-Transcona

My name is Les Kauk,soccer convener from Park CityWest Community Club. I am also the district representative for recreational soccer under Winnipeg Youth Soccer Association. I have been involved in the soccer program for the past eight years. I have been a resident of this community for the past 20 years. Park CityC.C.is home to an average of 250 kids in the 9 & over program. We also take care of an average of 20 teams in the 8 & under program. The last several years I have worked actively with the three schools involved as well as RiverEast Maintenance on improving the soccer fields in this area. Park Cityhas supplied a new set of goal nets for the full size field as well as 2 sets of goals for the mini fields. This in itself should show the importance of these fields to our community. The project for the Tn-school campus is very important for the development of recreational programs for the kids of the Transcona community as these fields serve not only Park Citybut Oxford and East End as well. On any night of the week these fields are in use for scheduled games or practices. I believe and many parents I have been in conversation with feel that good quality green space (Fields )is very hard to come by and it gives kids and their parents the choice to walk or ride their bikes to games and practices. This project will serve as a quality improvement for not only the community clubs but for allthe area kids looking for an additional space for recreation. The Tn-School campus development is a much need and welcomed improvement to the area. Sincerely, Les Kauk Soccer convener Park CityWest C.C. Greg Daniels From: Wyatt, Russ [[email protected]] Sent: June 18, 2009 3:25 PM To: Greg Daniels Subject: Letter of Support for the Tn-School Campus Initiative TO: Mrs. Sandy Dzuba, Chairperson, Tri-School Campus Initiative, do Greg Daniels, Principal of the Transcona Collegiate Institute Dear Ms. Dzuba: It is my sincere pleasure to take this opportunity to express my strong support and thanks for the work being undertaken by the volunteers of the Tn-School Campus Initiative. I wish you the best of luck and I will continue to provide strong support to your group as you actively work to raise all the necessary funds to make this excellent project a reality. The Tn-School Campus project will play an important role in achieving the recreation and healthy living goals of our community. Furthermore the renewal of an existing school yard that is jointly used by no less than three schools in our community will ensure our children have proper facilities for exercising. The amenities such as a new outdoor track facility, soccer fields, and outdoor basket court will go a long way to improving the recreation opportunities for our youth. Thank you for your dedication and the vision of all the volunteers on your committee. Due to the committee’s hard work, our youth will soon be able to enjoy a modem and beautiful recreation space for many years to come. Keep up the good work.
