Crescent Heights’ President’s Message for July

CrescentHeights cn

Happy Summer, Crescent Heights!

It’s officially that sweet spot of the year when the sun’s out, patios are buzzing, and our neighbourhood is looking its absolute best. Whether you’re out for a walk, tending a garden bed, or chasing kids through Rotary Park, there’s no better place to be than Crescent Heights in the summer.

Speaking of gardens – have you seen our community garden lately? It got a lovely spring refresh, thanks to Elena and James (our tireless Community Garden and Food Forest Leads) and a team of enthusiastic volunteers. The beds are full, thriving, and ready to burst with fresh summer harvests.

Behind the scenes, our board has been hard at work securing funding to improve our beloved community hall. It’s not the flashiest job, but we know how important these upgrades are to keeping our space safe and welcoming for everyone.

Of course, summer in Crescent Heights wouldn’t be complete without our legendary Stampede Breakfast, happening Sunday, July 13. We’ve got pancakes, ponies, and the return of the amazing Kate Reid Band! But we need your help to make the magic happen—check out volunteer opportunities at bit.ly/chca-stampede.

And don’t forget to mark your calendars for September 17—it’s our Annual General Meeting. We’d love to see some new faces join our board. Fresh ideas and community spirit are always welcome!

Until then, enjoy the sunshine, say hi to your neighbours, and we’ll see you at breakfast!
