President's message

Bayview Representative

We currently do not have a representative on the Community Association Board from Bayview.  It is important to get input from all three of our communities.  If you want to learn more about joining the board and you are a resident of Bayview, please contact me at president@pbpcommunity.ca.

Community Events

We are reviewing potential community events that are fully compliant with current and future Covid-19 requirements and recommendations.  We hope to begin some programming soon, but our primary concern is the health and safety of our community, so we will only proceed once we are sure it is safe to do so.  Watch the website for more updates, if and when we are able to announce new events:  pbpcommunity.ca

On a sad note, I wish to mention the passing of my neighbor, Gary Bobroff, in October.  Gary was a terrific community leader who volunteered at our local schools, the PBP fund-raising casinos, and our events, such as the annual Christmas event where he was our Jewish Santa.  Additionally, Gary served as the Chair of the Board of Directors of the SouthWest Communities Resource Centre, an organization that supports vulnerable families in our neighborhood.  He will be deeply missed.

Regards,

Jay Nelson

Calgary Police Services:

Vehicle theft is an ongoing concern within the city of Calgary. Each year, as the weather cools, the Calgary Police Service receives an increase in stolen vehicle thefts, targeting unlocked vehicles left running (warming up). With this in mind, please consider:

What can you do to prevent vehicle theft?

• Do not leave a vehicle running with the keys in the ignition for any length of time, even with the doors locked.      
• Never hide a second key in or around the vehicle.      
• Always close the windows, lock the doors and pocket the key.       
• Park in well-lit and well-traveled areas.    
• Take valuables with you or hide them out of sight.       
• Use anti- theft measures such as a steering wheel lock, a vehicle immobilizer system or an alarm system.         
• Consider installing a remote starter if you need to warm up your vehicle in the morning.     
• Report suspicious activity. If you see suspicious people in or around motor vehicles, call 9-1-1.

Remember, a few minutes braving the cold with your vehicle can save you from a headache down the line.
