Summer is an ideal time to get outside, whether it’s for a bike ride, nature walk or picnic. You can run around, play your favourite sport or cool off at the nearby splash pad.

Southwest Edmonton is a beautiful area to build a home. With several new communities developing in Edmonton’s growing south, residents have many options to choose from!

Stormwater ponds have become a common fixture in new communities, often encircled by a walking path or enhanced by benches, docks and lookout points. In addition to providing natural scenery, they play an important role in managing the excess stormwater that flows through our communities.

Qualico Communities has two new communities developing in West Edmonton, Edgemont East and The Uplands at Riverview.

The summer of 2020 may become known as the season of the staycation, as travel restrictions put in place to reduce the spread of COVID-19 keep people closer to home.

For most of us, that may not have been our first option, but having a staycation can still be adventurous, fun and restful. To help you out, we’ve provided you with some tips that will help you make the most of your summer staycation.

While the summer weather is finally upon us in Edmonton, and kids will soon be released from the home schooling experiment thrust on most of them due to COVID-19, parents face a new challenge. What to do to entertain their kids while still taking physical distancing measures to ensure everyones’ safety?

Since the need to provide physical distancing was required in order to stop the spread of COVID-19, home builders in our communities have expanded your options for touring their showhomes.

Life around the world has changed over the past month. Terms like “social distancing”, “flatten the curve”, and “COVID-19” are now part of our everyday vocabulary. Remote work has become the norm and we’re all spending many more hours at home. 

As exciting as it can be to see snow banks melt away in the spring, it can be equally nerve racking if your home isn’t well protected. Late season snowfalls can be heavy here in Alberta, and when all that snow and ice finally decides to melt it can create lakes, rivers, and streams across your yard and next to your house.
