I would just like to highlight what has been happening/going on behind the scenes this past month, in no particular order:
Unfortunately, we have been unable to find a replacement date for Neighbour Day, so it is officially cancelled. Thank you, Danny Greene and Chantal O. for trying to organize this event. We hope it can be even bigger and better next year!
Hopefully by the time you are reading this we will have repainted our little playground on 31 St SW. Thank you Mark Y. and volunteers for helping to spruce things up.
Things have been slow on the development front this summer, but Sarina Homes is moving ahead with their development on Richmond Green. We have also reached out to the Engage team to find out about the promised park upgrades for the rest of Richmond Green but have heard nothing to date.
Killarney has asked us and Richmond Knob Hill to join with them for an All Candidates Forum at their hall. Hopefully you have had some time to research our civic candidates for our fall election.
We are still waiting on the construction engineering for our Hall. We are also waiting to see if we are going to receive a CFEP grant from the provincial government to help with the Hall repair. We should have more information in November.
Join Us for Community Cleanup Day!
We’re calling on all neighbours, friends, and families to lend a hand at our annual Community Cleanup Day on Saturday, September 13, from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm, rain or shine! This is a great opportunity to come together, take pride in our neighbourhood, and clean up your clutter at home. There will be two shifts for the day, the morning shift will be from 8:30 to 11:00 am, and the afternoon shift will be 11:00 am to 2:00 pm.
We will need about 40 to 50 volunteers throughout the day from light to heavy duties; light breakfast, lunch, snacks, and drinks will be provided during the event. Please contact Rosa at [email protected] or [email protected] to sign up as a volunteer. Thank you for your support of this wonderful event!
If you have not already signed up for our email updates, please do so at our website, www.rutlandparkcommunity.com. The City often gives us very short notice for upcoming events, and this is the quickest way for us to reach you. Please also join us on Facebook by searching Rutland Park Community Association. Thank you for your ongoing support.
