They removed the mulch, put down landscape fabric, and put down crushed shale. If you're in the area, be sure to stop by the garden and take a a look. It looks absolutely incredible! Thank you so much for everybody's hard work!
Ridgewood Community League is looking to expand our volunteer pool, and we want your help!
Whether you're looking to meet your neighbours, get volunteer experience, or just lend a hand, we would love to have you be a part of our volunteer pool. Through this group, we'll be able to better deliver our exciting upcoming events. What kind of things might you be doing? We're looking for volunteers for events, whether it's helping set up or take down, run concession, or even greet people at the door. Volunteer duties might also include community clean up, help at our casino, or other opportunities that may pop up. So how does it work? Head on over to our volunteer page and fill out the form. We'll send you an email back to say hello and pop you in our pool. When there is an event coming up, we will send an email out to the pool and take sign ups. There are no minimum hour requirements per year, and previous experience is not required. Ridgewood Community League is excited to announce our brand new program: Ridgewood Community Clubs! What is a Community Club? It's a small club organized by a league member, open to all league members, that centres around a common theme or interest. Want to host a photography club or ballroom dance group? How about a book club or board game night? Knitting nights, sewing circles, bridge clubs... whatever you're interested in we want to host it.
Community Clubs are a fantastic way to meet your neighbours who share similar interests and hobbies. If you're interested in getting in touch about a new community club, please head on over to this page to read about it, and send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you! The Ridgewood Community League Annual General Meeting is happening on Sunday, June 23rd, 2024 at 6 pm.
All residents of Ridgewood are welcome to attend, and members of the league hold voting privileges. Come meet your board, ask questions, and let us know what you'd like to see your community league doing. There will also be some bylaw changes put forward that members will be invited to vote on. See you there! |
