			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Rocky Lake Development Association (RLDA) and its subsidiary the Rocky Lake Dome (RLD) are a non profit organization with a volunteer board, whose objectives are to provide sporting facilities to Bedford, Fall River-Waverley, Sackville and HRM.</p>
<p>The Rocky Lake Dome, a full sized ice surface, has just completed its first ice season and is currently hosting lacrosse and ball hockey during the non-ice season. They are proud to say that the RLD, the first privately built ice surface in more than 50 years, operated with a small profit in 2009/2010.</p>
<p>Two of the most pressing needs are &#8216;bleacher&#8217; seating and ice painting equipment. To that end the managers are organizing an auction, to be held at the Rocky Lake Dome arena on July 22. The auction will be preceded by a barbeque at 5pm, with the auction following from 7 – 10pm, or until finished. The auctioneer, Mr. Brian Warshick, is sure to maximize both the enjoyment and value received on all items.</p>
<p>Your support for this worthwhile endeavor would be greatly appreciated. RLDA realizes that in today’s business environment, requests of this nature are common, but with a facility that has greeted more than 35,000 users of all ages, plus family for ice related sports and will see several thousand more for the lacrosse and ball hockey season, the need for spectator accommodation and ice making equipment is critical.</p>
<p>If you would like to donate a prize for the Auction, or for more information, please call 832-0348, or email rockylake@bellaliant.com</p>
<p>The organizers thank you for your consideration and support.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(Wednesday, June 2, 2010) This summer, the Halifax Common will again be the site of several major events and concerts.  HRM is doing its part to relay information to help ensure any disruption is kept to a minimum.</p>
<p>This month, the Cancer Society is hosting a Relay for Life event on the Central Common from 7 pm to 7 am June 4.  As well, the Halifax Common will be the site of one of the largest Pow-Wows in the nation.  The Mawio’mi Grand Chief Membertou 400 Pow-Wow 2010 marks the 400th anniversary of the baptism of Grand Chief Henri Membertou.  The activities will be held on the grounds of the Common from June 25 to June 27, 2010.  This is a free family event.</p>
<p>Set up for the Pow-Wow begins on Tuesday, June 22 and continues through to Thursday, June 24.  Event equipment will be removed June 28 and 29.  Activities will occupy the majority of the Common area, but access<br />
through the area is not restricted.  Streets are not expected to be blocked to traffic at any time. Some parking spots on Cunard Street and Cogswell Street will be reserved for event purposes.  For more information visit:  www.Membertou400.com.</p>
<p>In July and August, the North Common will be the site for two major concerts:  Halifax Rocks 2010 on July 23 and 24 and Country Rockfest 2010 on August 6 and 7.</p>
<p>Soon after the major summer events end, HRM will be preparing the North Common area designated as the speed skating oval location for the 2011 Canada Winter Games.</p>
<p>For more information relating to these major events on the Halifax Common for 2010 go to: www.halifax.ca/EventsOnTheCommon/.</p>
