TOM PICKARD MAYOR
MAYOR’S MESSAGE Whitecourt is an active community made up of families and individuals that value recreational, leisure and social opportunities. On behalf of our residents, the Town of Whitecourt works to ensure these needs are met, and the programs outlined in this edition of the Community Spectrum are a testament to that commitment. I’m pleased to see the return of the Run 4 Fun, Children’s Festival, Party In The Park and Women’s Conference this year, and know many of you are eager to participate in these events as well. As a resident, and now also as Mayor, I am extremely proud of the high quality facilities and services we enjoy in Whitecourt. Places like the Allan & Jean Millar Centre, Eastlink Park, and Rotary Park are all icons in Whitecourt that are available because of foresight, dedication, partnerships and planning of past and present community members. All of them started as ideas to fulfill
needs in the community, and have helped shape the quality of Whitecourt. Take the Allan & Jean Millar Centre for example - it is hard to believe that this facility recently celebrated its 13th anniversary. It opened in 2008 after years of planning and consultation, and has quickly become a landmark in our community and the heart of leisure and recreation programming. I’m proud to say that the debenture for this facility will be complete next year – ahead of the original payment schedule proposed during the planning stage. As your new Whitecourt Town Council plans and prioritizes for the future, I want to thank Whitecourt for its continued engagement and support. As I mentioned before, I am a proud Whitecourt resident and I look forward to planning, discussing and working with you to better our community throughout my term on Council.
ATTENTION: ALL OFF-HIGHWAY VEHICLE OWNERS & OPERATORS
The Town of Whitecourt asks the public to use caution when participating in activities at the pond in Rotary Park. Please obey all “Thin Ice” signs and other posted warnings, and be aware that the area is UNSUPERVISED and is to be used at your own risk. If you require information about Rotary Park pond, ice safety, planned park activities, or would like to report vandalism or unsafe conditions in the area, please call 780-778-2273.

McMan Youth, Family and Community Services Safe Visitation Program. Who is eligible for safe visitation services? Families may be eligible for safe visitation services if… • There have been incidents of violence between parents & the parents are separated. • Both parties consent to the terms of visitation and the program. • A child wishes to visit the non-custodial parent, or a court has ordered that the child has supervised visitation. candace.taylor@mcman.ca Program Supervisor www.mcman.ca
McMan Youth, Family and Community Services Safe Visitation Program The Safe Visitation Initiative helps protect children and families in situations where there is a risk of family violence and/or the children have been exposed to family violence. Safe visitation provides an opportunity for children to remain connected their non-custodial parent in a safe and secure environment. Staffs helps ensure children have a positive experience visiting with their parent and are trained to recognize cues that the child may be uncomfortable. Services also can include support in creating safety, helping your child through the experience of separation, parenting challenges, understanding the impact environment can have on a child’s development and planning for safe long- term connection. Healthy Relationship groups, health communication and help for you and your child in navigating through the period of separation and divorce are also available though the program. There is no cost for families to access services from a safe visitation site, and a court order is not necessary for a referral. The services are not intended as parenting evaluation. In families where family violence has occurred and the parents are separated, organizing visitation can be stressful and may pose additional risks or challenges; the Safe Visitation can bridge this stressful time and build towards a safe future.
