Greetings,
As we welcome the heart of summer, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible spirit that makes our community so special. The longer days and warmer nights bring with them a renewed sense of connection—whether it’s neighbours chatting on evening walks, kids playing at the park, or families gathering for backyard barbecues. There’s something magical about summer in Springbank Hill, and it’s because of all of you that it continues to be a place we are proud to call home.
First and foremost, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to our many dedicated volunteers. It’s no exaggeration to say that the heartbeat of Springbank Hill is powered by the generosity and commitment of those who give their time to support our community. Whether you’re part of the community garden team, volunteer on one of our two rink teams, our newsletter editor who works tirelessly on this newsletter and our digital newsletter, or a SBHCA board member—thank you! Your efforts are noticed, appreciated, and felt across our neighbourhood.
This summer, we hope you take full advantage of the inviting trails in the neighbourhood, along with our parks and playground areas, which provide a great space for families to connect and play. Summer is also a wonderful time to embrace small moments of connection including chatting to your neighbour or helping someone who might need a helping hand. These are the things that truly enrich our day-to-day lives.
If you’re interested in getting involved, we would love to hear from you. There are so many ways to contribute—whether through volunteering, attending community meetings, or simply sharing ideas for how we can continue to make Springbank Hill the best it can be. Every voice matters, and every effort strengthens our bond as a community. Contact us at [email protected]. We would love to hear from you.
Last but not least, please take a minute to complete our Springbank Hill Resident Survey, the link can be found further on in this newsletter, as well as on our website.
Looking forward to seeing you around the neighbourhood this summer!
Warm regards,
Shelly Smith
