You would be forgiven for not knowing that during the noise of a global pandemic, the 2021 Young Readers' Choice Awards (YRCA) quietly puttered along like nothing else was happening, outside of a good read clutched in one’s hands.

Airdrie’s public school students in Grade 12 will once again be celebrating their graduations virtually this year.

An Airdrie resident will be conquering her fear of heights in the name of charity this fall, when she rappels down the side of a skyscraper in downtown Calgary.

The prime directive of Airdrie Public Library (APL) is quite simple – to foster literacy, promote knowledge, and encourage cultural connections. It's a directive that guides everything we do at APL.

As many Rocky View County restaurants adapt to the shift back to takeout and delivery service in light of new COVID-19 restrictions, the Bragg Creek Café & Baking Company is getting creative with ways to get the community involved.

With the help of a province-wide municipal grant program, Genesis Place has installed new LED lighting throughout its facility in an effort to lower energy costs and curb its environmental footprint.

To give Airdrie businesses, residents and non-profits a leg up during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Airdrie City View is launching a new coupon book to help stimulate and encourage local shopping.

With the help of a few of his farm animal friends, Allen the Alpaca has been bringing smiles to Airdronians’ faces since his rise to stardom last summer.

Spring weather is officially upon us, meaning many Airdronians are out mowing their lawns or working in their gardens. However, the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is urging residents to embrace their laziness and an unkempt yard this spring, and hold off on moving their lawns throughout the month of May, in order to protect pollinating species.

Public accountability spectacles, or the practice of bringing someone considered guilty of committing a social faux pas to account, have become an ever-present part of our culture.
