We had a community celebration on Saturday June 22, 2019 at the Wellesley Community Centre. We wanted to share the results of the feasibility study with the community and thank everyone who participated in the various consultation processes and events throughout the past year. We were happy to present our accomplishments to the community and get people excited for the next steps. There was time for people to socialize and have fun, listen to the presentation, eat food, and go through the reports and ways to get involved information packages.

There was an amazing meal provided by Suruthi’s and Parliament Shawarma which filled everyone’s tummy and everyone was able to bring home leftovers as well. Our musician, Rosita Stone, played emotionally and beautifully, bring people to tears in the audience. Then we had a fun time dancing and chatting with one another, bonding over food and festive spirits!

Thank you to everyone who came out as well as our volunteer. Also, welcome to new members and volunteers!

We’ll have lots of events coming up including our Community Thursdays Series from 6-8pm at the The New Common Every Thursday this summer, come check us out! Calendar is here: http://stjamest.mywhc.ca/events/
