Neighbour Day
Remember when life was simpler - when kids played outside until the streetlights came on and neighbours were just a door knock away? This Neighbour Day, we invite residents to rediscover that spirit of connection and fun!
Check out your local Neighbourhood Associations to see if there's a celebration planned in your area - or take the lead and create one yourself! Celebrating your neighbours doesn't have to be a grand event. It can be as simple as a friendly game of street hockey or sharing a pot of tea in the driveway. Whether you live in an apartment, condo, townhouse or detached home, there are many ways to connect with your neighbours.
