Our 2023 meeting will take place in Renfrew-Collingwood, at the amazing Collingwood Neighbourhood House. Since the late 1980’s, CNH has been providing a safe space – and an array of important services – to the surrounding neighbourhood. We’re honoured to be able to hold our annual meeting in this important non-profit operated public space.

Our AGM agenda will include recap of our advocacy and project work over the past year, and provide a preview of our work ahead. As part of the activities we’ll also provide an update on our finances and elect a new board of directors for the upcoming year.

Pre-meeting Walk – Collingwood Park

Before getting down to business, we’ll also be taking a short walk through nearby Collingwood Park (5275 McKinnon Street), which is currently undergoing an important redesign process. If you’d like to join the walk, please meet at the corner of Euclid and McKinnon at 6pm. Weather permitting, the walk will last approximately 1 hr, at which point we will head to Collingwood Neighbourhood House for the AGM.

Registration

Please register here to let us know you’ll attend. Both the walk and the AGM are free to attend and everyone is welcome.

Following initial engagement in May of this year, where over 600 people contributed ideas, several design improvements were identified. A new concept for the park has been developed, which includes several features that could potentially be part of the upgrade, including the playground area, sports court, wading pool, washrooms, paths, seating & plantings.

The current engagement provides an opportunity for community members to provide feedback on the concept plan before it is presented to the Park Board Commissioners for approval.

You can find more information, and a link to the engagement survey here. The survey deadline is December 5, 2022.
