The Longview ARC Society has teamed up with the Longview Recreation Board and the Serenity Park Planning Committee to move ahead with the two year A.C.E. Project Proposal they have been working on. The plan is to include:
    new playground equipment, outdoor exercise equipment and new benches and garbage cans for Centennial Park
    paving of the rink to include outlets for basketball and tennis nets for use in the summer as well as portable skateboard equipment
    Serenity Park and Veterans' Memorial proposed for in front of the Village office.


The ARC Society is excited to inform the public that we have submitted a grant request to match the expected input from Longview Recreation Board. We are submitting our final proposal to ACE in order to gain access to our $10,000 Seed money and start fund raising for the rest. We have many exciting fund raisers in the works and will need your help to complete our project. We have an upcoming raffle which we will tell you more about next issue. Right now we need people interested in:
    helping decorate a float to help promote our “Xtreme Makeover” for the Little New York Daze Parade
    help sell raffle tickets at the parade

    For a fund raiser for The Wild Pink Yonder who will be coming through Longview on August 18th   (covered wagon and horseback riders raising money for cancer research).

    People interested in helping plan musical and artistic events for Alberta ARTS Days September 30th and October 1st.

Let's get this done for our kids, everyone and experience the fun of really accomplishing something working shoulder to shoulder with your neighbours! If you would like to help or want more information please call Michele at 403-558-2158 or leave a message at the Village office 403-558-3922.
