Hey Airdrie!

Volunteers are still needed for The Doin It On the Grass Classic car show on August 8th, hosted by Time Travellers Car Club of Airdrie

This is one of the funnest events in Airdrie each summer and a great volunteer opportunity for everyone, but particularly anyone who loves classic cars!

This is the 25h anniversary of this annual show and the organizers are working hard to bring in the max of 500 cars into the park! To run an event this large, and this fun, volunteers play a HUGE role!

Solo volunteers must be 16+. Youth over 12 may volunteer with a guardian. Volunteers under 18 will require a guardian to sign a waiver.

You are welcome to sign up for multiple shifts.

FREE CHILDCARE is available for Volunteers via LiitCare Connect and thanks to support from Child Inspired Psychology Group. Email [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) to learn more and make arrangements.

Maybe someone knows this kid or has a kid with an electric scooter. This was super dangerous.

Wife is in line at the vehicle registration office. I stayed in the car... Just watching...

Just How??? Amazing how bad people are at basic driving functions. And it's older people. Not kids taking tests.

Can't back into spots... Jesus, one lady couldn't even figure out how to park straight in the middle cause they are arrow shaped spots. LMAO!!

We need a rcmp officer just sitting, watching at the door who can just confiscate licenses at entry. LOL

Hello r/Airdrie! We’re Drisavo Driving School, and we’re offering a non-promotional Q&A for local learner drivers and parents.

Feel free to ask general questions about:

• Preparing for an Alberta Class 5 road test
• Practising safely with a parent or supervisor
• Parallel parking and other common challenges
• Driving anxiety and building confidence
• Choosing a driving school or instructor
• Winter driving and local road conditions

We’ll provide general educational answers only—no prices, discounts, booking links or guaranteed-pass claims.

What part of learning to drive do you find most difficult or confusing?

Synapse is planning a 10-building campus in the northeast corner of Olds, AB with a total of 1.4 gigawatts of gas-fired power generation — about enough to power the City of Edmonton. It will include 1.8 gigawatts of emergency and backup diesel generation.

This is just up the road from us. What do the people of Airdrie think about this? What if someone said we’re getting an AI Data Center in Airdrie?

Called CIBC today and they don’t keep on hand, must be ordered through their website or app.

I’m looking for a small amount (one hundred euros) for a friend’s birthday. Any tips on where I can find them locally? Trying to avoid the drive to Calgary. Thanks!

Hello! Forgive me if this is not allowed

I was curious about if any people on farmland was looking for help with outdoor rodent/groundhog control. I am trying to get into hunting and figured it might be a good way to start local with some pest control.

Thanks for your time!

Hi all,

My name is Majesta and I’ll be starting a mobile coffee trailer in Airdrie. I’m putting my info out there to hopefully get some traction on a location I can park M-F. Ideally a parking lot.

I’ve reached out to several places around town, and the ones with space don’t accommodate food trailers, which I understand.

Ideally, this would be in the style of Pacific Northwest coffee where folks can drive up and order through the window.

If you have any location suggestions or are a business owner interested in hosting a fun coffee spot, let me know!

Thanks!

(I’ve already reached out to Walmart, Chevron, Home Depot, Genesis Place, and gotten hard “No”s from them or didn’t hear back at all. Also I am aware of bylaws and AHS requirements, so just hoping for some help finding a location in town)

Mission accomplished.

2 of them in the water, they are orange, so I'm guessing it's probably the rentals.

Hi everyone, Im looking to get a job ( As a teenager, for safety and just for pers reasons I wont state my exact age but im under 16). Im fairly new to this town and Im looking for any good available jobs . I would say im good with interacting with people and most would say Im goodspoken and polite. I can keep this act for a long period of time. And any jobs that can pay a good decent amount. Most of my friends would call me talkative so Im looking for any available server/fast food cashier jobs ( like local restaurants) that are hiring teenagers who has no real job experience service. I have honors, and starting cadets soon and helped / managed my friends business as a kid growing up so I can do multiple things at the same time.

Just looking for any jobs for this summer and next summer! And Im not really sure if this can count as a Job hosting so yup!

As a student at this school I suggest finding a different middle school to go to. It is absolutely nauseating that the teachers do absolutely nothing about bullying. For example, I got rocks thrown at me and my best friend and told the tecahers yet they didn't try to resolve the issue and it kept happening throughout the whole year.

They also claim to me a safe environment and yet take no action to ensure that homophobia is not an issue. I have a girlfriend and when students and even teachers found out they would look at me in disquist

Additionally, there have been many girls who feel unsafe using the washroom a as many of us have found cameras hidden in there and have told the teachers yet they still keep getting found.

Not to mention the teachers, specifically a teacher names Mrs Naugler are absolutely horrible. Mrs Naugler has gotten a kid in trouble for accidentally knocking over something on her desk (a pencil holder) causing pencils to go everywhere and instead of being nice and calm about its she screamed at him and called him useless. Me and my best friend went to the principal about it and no action was taken and she only got worse. She also doesn't teach. Instead she will hand us a textbook and a worksheet on something we have nwveeeven heard about while she plays games at her desk of whatever tf she is doing over there. I can't say this for all teachers but ten vast majority of the teachers there are absolutely miserable to have.

Of course there are some good teachers like Mr Scott and Mrs Marose (sorry if I spelt that wrong) but they are egood in the sense of doing the bare minimum.

It's no wonder that the students here are starting online school the school is aweful.

Not to mention the teachers being ABSOLUTE a-holes to the students with mental dissabilities. I have ADHD and my best friend has Autism and the teachers barely do anything to help us. Not to mention Mrs Alibi who took away her Autism headphones or whatever they are called. The same sub also purposly calls on the kid with dyslexia to read it the class knowing damn well he has dyslexia.

I could go on but you get the point. If I need to I will post about this toxic learning environment some idiots decided to call a school.

Don't send you're kids here. Literally any other school is better

Looks like so good sporting entertainment is finally coming to Airdrie!

Hi Airdrie,
We are planning to start free yoga sessions for whoever is interested in Channelside playground but not sure what sort of permits from city would be required. Can someone please guide, this is just a plan at the moment.
Thanks

They recently announced on their IG that their last day will be July 26. Any idea why? It’s crazy unfortunate because there’s already so little choice for coffee shops here. Seems like Ground Press has a firm hold on the city, which is great since they’re local, but would be nice to have more than one or two options (Starbucks and Tim’s doesn’t count).
