Neighbours Day

Neighbours Day—The Association describes our neighborhood as friendly, welcoming place, in which residents feel safe and supported. This is a day to promote residents on a street or a court getting together.
Our community will celebrate neighbors day on July 17th or any day that weekend. 

If you want your get together posted on our neighborhood map, please send your details to [email protected]

It is important  that we connect with our neighbours. We are encouraging residents of our community to plan and host in-person or virtual events and try some of the activities below with your neighbours.

If you decide to have an event in-person: you could meet at one of our parks in our neighborhood, or block off a section of your street or court with pylons (invite everyone on your street so that everyone is included and aware of the street closure).

Here is a card that you can hand out to your neighbors to get to know them. My Neighbour Card
