This is a drop-in event from 10 AM – 2 PM with speeches and singing scheduled from 11 -11:30am. The rest of the time is for you to connect with old classmates and colleagues and to wander and look at photographs and trivia set up by decade in our Decade Rooms, as well as enjoy the Themed PhotosAcross the Years highlighting events such as going to Kearney, the Terry Fox walk, Concerts and Sports Teams.
We look forward to seeing you there! Note that this is NOT the long weekend!
Yesterday evening the Scarborough Rosewood Community Association held an official AGM at Alexmuir Jr Public School at 7pm. We were able to vote in our by-laws and officially elect our current slate of directors. Thank you to everyone who took the time out of their busy schedules to attend, update their memberships and help us adhere to the current act governing small organizations like ours. As mentioned in the meeting, all members are welcome to contact us directly if they want a copy of the by-laws or financial statements.
We were also happy to have Tyler and Judy from Toronto 311 come and present about this very useful and important service to our residents. In the future, in cases of potholes, roadkill, unplowed roads and sidewalks, untrimmed trees on city property and other city service concerns, please call 311 (and maybe not Alura, who will simply have to call 311 on your behalf!)
We also thank Councillor Myers and Sana for coming to our meeting and following up on local concerns raised by residents at our spring meeting, including the Montezuma Trail plaza development and the hot water situation at the Agincourt Rec Centre.
Finally, a member of our local 42 Division gave a very informative presentation on crime prevention, especially pertaining to auto theft, break-and-enters and robbery. We will be including a copy of the presentation in the next Rosewood eblast.
P.S. we also presented a certificate of acknowledgement to a very lovely Rosewood resident who has been working tirelessly to rejuvenate our gardens and really re-animate the community activities this year. She doesn’t like her name shared publicly, so we will not be posting her name and photo here, but we all know who you are. Thank you again! Our gardens, website, and so much more, would not be the same without you.
We’re starting a new year, and a new decade! You should be receiving an email from us tonight with some Scarborough city budget forum and council news. Meanwhile, a team of Rosewood volunteers is beginning to plan for our own Lunar New Year (I know, another new year?) celebration. This will be our 5th such event and it has become an anticipated and fun, family-friendly event that brightens up some of the dreary winter months.
So mark your calendars, plan to attend, and if you have some free time we always appreciate having volunteers!
The Rosewood Taxpayers’ Association invites you to celebrate the Lunar New Year with a Lion Dance, traditional group dances, children’s performances and an appearance by Choy Sun (Red Pockets will be given to children at the end of the event).
Saturday, February 10, 10am to 12pm in the gymnasium at Alexmuir Jr Public School. Everyone welcome. Free admission.
