If you come into the park with garbage, please make sure it leaves with you! We've had a number of complaints of trash being left around the baseball diamonds and parks.

We want to keep our area as clean as possible, so this is your reminder to please respect the park. If a trash can is overflowing, don't throw your garbage on the ground beside it. Take it with you and throw it out later!

Come out on June 20th, 2-7 pm, for our third annual Gruhn St Porch Party!

The day will feature local musicians, an open mic stage, and even an improv and comedy act! There are also many kid-friendly activities: making sea creatures out of egg cartons at the craft table, face painting, a s'mores station, soccer game, and even a calming corner for some chill time.
The street will be closed to traffic and we'll end the day with a hot dog BBQ (including veggie dogs)!

This is an all free event, although any donations will go to the musicians/acts.
Check out www.gruhnstporchparty.ca for all the details!
