Revised Meeting Date and Time

September is always a busy month, especially when you have kids in different schools! After the date was set for the first council meeting I heard through the grapevine that there was a conflict that evening with a feeder school's Meet The Teacher night!

We want to make sure that everyone who wants to come out to the meeting can and so we have moved the meeting to the next day.

The first meeting is now on THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 26 at 6:30pm.

This meeting has a very full agenda including info on how the government cuts are affecting our kids and what the year may look like if unions begin to take job actions. As well, we hope to take a look at what council wishes to focus on this year and how we can shape our council to meet those needs. This will be a very informative evening and if you can only attend one meeting this year, this is the one to attend!

Hope to see many new faces next week!

Sponsorship Options Still Available

Have you noticed the sponsorship signs outside the main doors?  Have you thought about how many people drive past that each day, how many of our neighbourhood  residents walk past each day?  Now what about the exposure that is given to our sponsors on our website, in these newsletters, and even at the event itself?  Keep in mind that we promote the Fun Fair right across the area through our feeder schools, local library, independent businesses, and community bulletin boards. 80% of the profit of this event will go right back into the school to improve the technology that our students use each day. Ask your kids how much it is needed, they will be your best insight! With all this said, there are 3 different levels and if you or someone you know is a small business owner who is looking to help a good cause, please consider Bloordale Fun Fair Sponsorship.  Contact us via email and we will have our Sponsorship Lead Extraordinaire contact you w...
