It’s time again for my neighbourhood’s favourite event – Quadra Village Day 2013! This year we celebrate the 11th annual event, one planned and executed with an entirely volunteer-run planning committee and close to 100 event-day volunteers. This vibrant diverse neighbourhood is proud to be “Building and Celebrating our Thriving Community”.
Thanks to generous sponsors and donors the event is entirely FREE – and that includes two breakfasts (pancake and Healthy Start), activities for children and teens, and music and dance performances.
A multitude of community groups will be present too.
JOIN US SATURDAY, MAY 11, 9:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
