Wildfire Smoke and Air Quality in the Bow Valley
2025-01-18 10:00 - 11:30 | Frank Memorial Hall, Cochrane
The second session of the Living Sustainably Series III will be Wildfire Smoke and Air Quality in the Bow Valley on Jan. 18, 2025 from 10am – 11:30am at the Frank Wills Memorial Hall, 405-1 St E, Cochrane AB.
Over the last decade, the increased frequency of wildfires in western Canada have produced more and more smoke. Since this trend is expected to increase, wildfire smoke will continue to impact air quality in the Bow Valley.
The Calgary Region Airshed Zone (CRAZ) monitors, collects, and analyzes air quality data in Calgary and the surrounding region. CRAZ has developed a “Community Guide to Wildfire Smoke and Health’, to provide consistent Alberta-specific messaging, resources, and information to help municipalities, companies, schools, organizations and the public to plan for and prepare for wildfire smoke events.
CRAZ will review and discuss the following:

the composition of smoke,
fire and air,
how smoke can negatively affect a person’s health,
how to protect yourself during smoke events,
overview the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI), and
overall air quality trends in the Bow Valley.

The speakers will include Mandeep Dhaliwal and Tanya Carlson.
Mandeep Dhaliwal is the Air Quality Program Manager with CRAZ.
Mr. Dhaliwal, B.SC., P.CHEM, is an atmospheric scientist with over 15 years of experience in monitoring air quality (ambient and indoor), meteorology, and noise. Mandeep is experienced in monitoring data collection and data validation protocols, as per provincial and national air monitoring reporting protocols. In previous positions, Mandeep has developed, implemented, and maintained various monitoring programs related to mining and oil & gas operations throughout Canada.
Tanya Carlson is the Engagement Program Manager with CRAZ.
Ms. Carlson began her tenure with CRAZ as the Engagement Program Manager in March 2015. With a robust background in the non-profit sector, Tanya has dedicated several years to roles in Marketing and Special Event Management before joining CRAZ. In 2022, Tanya completed her Non Profit Management Certification from Mount Royal University. Additionally, she is also a Recreation Therapist, specializing in the field of Gerontology.

Last Day of School Ice Cream and Pizza
2025-06-25 17:00 - 19:00
Hi Neighbours!

Can you believe the last day of school is almost here? Our kids will be out and about at the parks again soon—and it got me thinking: I’d really love to meet more of the neighbours my kids are always playing with!

Many Cochrane neighbourhoods host food truck parties, so I thought—why not us? I’ve organized a pizza and ice cream truck at Terrace Park (by the mailboxes) for the last day of school!

Come out, meet your neighbours, and kick off summer together. And let’s be honest—if you’re anything like me, you probably don’t want to cook dinner that night anyway. So grab a pizza, treat yourself (and the kids) to some ice cream, and let’s celebrate the start of summer!

Hope to see you there!

Special Meeting to Elect Your GECA Board of Directors
2025-09-18 19:00 - 21:00
The acting Board of the GlenEagles Community Association (GECA) is calling a Special General Meeting on September 18, 2025 to officially elect a Board of Directors to serve until the next Annual General Meeting in May 2026. The meeting will be held at The Links of Gleneagles starting at 7:00 P.M.
Why this Meeting is Important:
Until a formal Board is elected, we are unable to approve a budget or move forward with plans for 2026. To proceed, we need a minimum of 96 votes from 96 different residences —either in person or by proxy.
Background
At the GECA Annual General Meeting held on May 28, 2025, the election of a new Board did not take place.
Under GECA Bylaws, we must elect a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 9 directors. A proposed slate of 9 candidates (8 returning members and 1 new candidate from the Villas) was presented. However, in accordance with the Alberta Societies Act, we were required to ask three times if there were any additional nominations.
On the third call, Jennifer Gagnon from the Estates nominated herself, resulting in 10 candidates for 9 positions, which triggered a vote. Residents then requested to see all candidate profiles before voting. As these were not immediately available, and after considerable discussion, it was suggested to defer the election and conduct it by email.
However, legal counsel has since confirmed that votes must be cast either in person or by proxy. This necessitates the Special General Meeting.
Special Meeting & Proxy Voting
This meeting will be solely for the purpose of electing the GECA Board of Directors. We strongly urge you to attend and to be prepared to vote for up to 9 candidates.
• Candidate profiles and proxy forms will be sent to all residents on August 20, 2025.
• If you are unable to attend, please complete a proxy and give it to a Gleneagles resident who will be attending the meeting.
• Proxies must be presented at the meeting by the designated resident.
• If you cannot find someone to represent you, please contact us at info@geca.ca and we will help you find a proxy holder.
Nominations
If you would like to run for the Board or nominate another resident:
• Please complete the attached Board Member Candidate Profile Template and return it to info@geca.ca by August 18, 2025.
• All nominations received by that date will be included in the candidate package and proxy materials sent out on August 20, 2025.
Nominations will still be accepted from the floor during the Special Meeting; however, last-minute nominees will only have 3 minutes to introduce themselves and their names will not be listed on the proxy.
Let Your Voice Be Heard
This is your community. Please take the time to vote—either in person or by proxy—and help shape the future of Gleneagles.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to info@geca.ca.
