Thanks to all of our sewers – you have helped keep us safe and healthy

A big thank you to Sandy Prentice, who was volunteered to be the Village COVID-19 mask coordinator.  Sandy and her volunteer seamstresses put many hours and their own fabric and supplies into keeping the rest of us safe by sewing hundreds of masks.

It takes a village … and there is no other village where we would rather live.  Please take the time to give a “virtual” pat on the back to Sandy’s Sewers.

Flower Beds have new caretakers in Lockwood Park

Many thanks to St Paul’s Anglican Church congregants, Frances Hazell, Mary Chaikowsky and Arthur Thompson for the effort they have put into the two Memorial Gate flower beds in Lockwood Park.

The past couple of years, I weeded them in advance of the July 1 celebrations, but these orphan gardens needed a lot of TLC.  What a difference some time and effort have made. Frances and Mary planted beautiful annuals in time for Canada Day and ensured they were watered and maintained all summer.

Last week, Frances, Mary and Arthur worked together to plant hydrangeas.  I am sure they will be stunning next summer.  Thank you for taking the initiative and making our park more colourful.
