Recent News and Upcoming EventsAnnual General Meeting - May 25 @ the hall 7:00pm - 9:00pmAll Greenfield residents are invited to enjoy wine and snacks with the Board of Directors, meet your neighbours and get involved in discussions about the community.
Councillor Michael Janz and MLA Richard Feehan will be in attendance. Topics of discussion will include summer use of the ice rink area (e.g. off leash area) and the future of the tennis club. Hope to see you there! Community Garage saleThe 2022 Greenfield Community Wide Garage Sale will be scheduled for June 11th!
While the community league does not host the event, we do help organizers spread the word! For any and all inquiries about this event, please email greenfieldgaragesale@gmail.com. For those unfamiliar with the concept, the residents of Greenfield hold a coordinated garage sale in June throughout the community. The idea is that residents host their own individual garage sales at their own house on the same day. This year, it will take place on June 11th. With everyone doing it on the same day, the organizers work together to cover signage, advertising and draw more visitors to each garage sale. Many garage sale shoppers flock to Greenfield as it is easier to visit multiple locations in one neighborhood instead of driving all over town. If you apply to participate, your house/sale will be marked on a map shared with the neighborhood, enabling prospective shoppers to find you and browse your wares! Want to be a part of this? Send an email to greenfieldgaragesale@gmail.com by May 29th, 2022! Remember, the sale will be scattered all over the neighborhood, so please don't show up at the community hall on June 11th, as you'll likely end up interrupting a private event! Big bin eventThe Greenfield Community League is planning a Big Bin Event:
Date: June 18, 2022 (one week after the community wide garage sale) Time: 10am to 3pm or until the bins are full Location: Dayspring Presbyterian Church Parking Lot— 11445 40 Ave Cost: TBD—There will likely be a small fee or donation for use. Community league (proof of membership required) and church members will receive a discount on the fee. This is a good opportunity to complete spring cleaning, donate and dispose of any items that didn’t make sell at the garage sale, and connect with community residents. We have partnered with Find Edmonton to have an onsite donation collection team for quality used items that can be diverted from the landfill. We are also hoping to have some snacks, light refreshments, and hotdogs for sale onsite (weather pending) to raise funds for the community league. If you are not a community league member, we will have memberships available for purchase on site. Updates will be included on the sign board outside the hall, and in the emailed Gazette Express in June. Please note that we will not be accepting electronics, scrap metal, appliances, hazardous waste, or any items that would not be accepted at the eco-station in general household refuse.
