Knowing can make the difference between life and death. Recognizing and responding immediately to the warning signs of a potential heart attack can significantly improve survival and recovery. February is Heart Month - take the time to be heart safe and learn how you can reduce your risk. What to do when seconds count • Call 9-1-1 immediately. Early treatment can greatly reduce heart damage and make the difference of life and death. • Treatment starts the moment EMS arrives. Paramedics can provide oxygen, start an intravenous and perform an electrocardiogram (ECG). • Paramedics can also administer important medications in the early minutes of a heart attack to lessen heart damage. • During transport, EMS will also share information with the hospital so definitive treatment can begin immediately on arrival. • Take a CPR/AED (automated external defibrillator) course. Training is widely available from many reputable organizations. It’s easy, inexpensive, and only takes a few hours. Know the signs of a heart attack (Any or all of these signs and symptoms may occur) • Chest pain described as crushing, squeezing, pressure or chest heaviness • Pain that moves beyond the chest such as shoulder, arm, neck or jaw pain • Shortness of breath, sweating or nausea and vomiting Reduce your risk Heart attack risk factors include: • Obesity • Sedentary lifestyle • Smoking • High cholesterol • Age / Gender • Family history Speak with your doctor about how to treat your modifiable risk factors and learn to be heart safe.

Our Beavers have been having a great time with all of their activities. When the weather was very cold, they headed to the gym at the South Fish Creek Recreation centre for lots of games and just plain running and having fun. They also visited a senior’s lodge for an evening of caroling to brighten everyone’s day. A movie night rounded off their December schedule. The Cubs had a great time learning and practicing archery. Popping balloons makes for lots of fun and lots of noise. They have been working on earning many badges as well as their Green Star which encompasses outdoor skills and activities. They each made their own survival kits which they can use for many years to come. They also have an evening of swimming planned for January. The Scouts have had lots of great activities. They had an evening of 5 pin bowling at Mountainview Bowling. That is always a huge hit with the kids. They also went swimming at the Southland leisure centre and had a Christmas wind-up party. They are getting prepared for their annual winter camp the end of January - camping in tents in January - sounds like fun! The Venture group has been busy with their tree lot. Thank you to everyone who bought their beautiful Christmas trees. Thanks to all our great leaders and volunteers who work so hard to make a great program for the kids. Also, thank you to the ongoing support we receive from the Woodcreek Community Association and our local Lions Club.

Fish Creek CommUnity Fair Saturday Feb. 22, 2014 1:00pm - 4:00pm Fish Creek Environmental Learning Centre, Shannon Terrace, Fish Creek Provincial Park (13931 Woodpath Rd. SW - Access via 130 Ave. SW and 37 St. SW) www.ward11calgary.ca In early January the Assessment Department mailed out the 2014 Assessment Notices to property and business owners in Calgary. We are currently in the Customer Review Period, which ends on March 4th. If you have not already done so, I encourage you to review your assessment notice to ensure that the information it contains is accurate. The Assessment Department can be reached via telephone at 403-268-2888. Any inquiries received within the 2014 Customer Review Period will be reviewed by an assessor, and appropriate action taken. This sometimes includes amending an assessment to ensure that it is accurate. When reviewing your 2014 property assessment, please remember that under provincial legislation the value of your property reflects the market value of the property on July 1, 2013 and the physical condition as of December 31, 2013. For those whose homes were impacted by the June flood, special considerations were required by the Assessment Department. After the flood, Assessment staff worked to identify and measure the flood’s impact on properties. Based on this analysis, 1,939 properties have been identified as experiencing a market value reduction due to the flood. The market value adjustments are reflected in the 2014 assessed values for these properties. The business tax consolidation process continues in 2014 with 10 per cent of business tax revenues transferred to, and collected through, the non-residential property tax. This will result in a 10 per cent decrease to the 2014 business tax rate and an estimated 2.7 per cent increase to the non-residential property tax rate. Incremental revenue transfers will occur annually until 2019, culminating with the elimination of the business tax. I encourage constituents of Ward 11 to contact me and sign up to received regular updates from my office, as I email out information regarding upcoming events, City programs and opportunities for input into the City’s public engagement programs that are relevant to Ward 11 residents. You can sign up by emailing my office at ward11@calgary.ca.
