Message from Director of Community Services Dear Slave Lake, I hope this message finds you all in good health and high spirits. As the Director of Community Services, it is both an honor and a privilege to serve such a vibrant and engaged community.

First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to all the dedicated staff who give their time and energy every day to support our community. Your commitment to service is truly inspiring, and it is because of your efforts that we have been able to achieve so much.

In the coming months, we have a variety of exciting things planned. One of the highlights will be our annual Frost Fest, where we will celebrate everything that makes our community so special.

We are actively working on improving our community spaces and amenities. We are committed to enhancing our parks, playgrounds, and recreational facilities. We believe that by investing in these areas we can create safe and inclusive spaces for all residents to enjoy and connect with one another.

Thank you for your ongoing support and dedication to our community. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to serve you all, and I look forward to the exciting times ahead.

Yours,

Tasha Albert Director of Community Services
