The first meeting of the 2010 Prospect Road Craft Crawl members was recently held at the new Prospect Road Community Centre.

The opening of this Centre now provides an opportunity to change the format and grow this community icon. Over the past few years’ attendance has been decreasing; feedback suggests most people would like to see this event under one roof. As it happens we now have a beautiful new Community Centre, which will offer us one location to hold this annual show.

Changing the venue will create new opportunities. The members will be adjusting the format over the summer months, which will see the crawl turning into an annual show open up to crafters & artisans from all over HRM.

The next meeting will be held at the Community Centre on July 12th at 7 p.m. Should you wish to be a member, please feel free to attend this meeting. Being a member gives you the opportunity to offer your input on the design and help plan the new show.

This year’s show date will be October 16th, 2010. There will be spaces available for rent, and names will be posted along with phone numbers you can contact after the final plan is designed to book your space/table.

Hope to see you at our next meeting,

Bev Blackburn
Member – Prospect Road Craft Show

toes-in-the-waterHowdy Neighbour!

On July 5th we'll be doing a bottle drive to raise funds for Toes In The Water, a newly founded not for profit society that benefits youth in the Prospect Communities and at the IWK.

If you have bottles you would like to donate, please give us a call at 850-2597 or send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to arrange a pickup.

Don't want your bottles cluttering up the house, or don't have enough to make a donation now? No problem! We have an account set up for on-going donations at the Goodwood Enviro Depot. Just mention when your drop the bottles off that you would like your refund to be donated to the Toes In The Water account.

Too often financial barriers prevent youth from participating in outdoor activities. Toes In The Water helps subsidize the cost of adventures such as kayaking, yoga, and horseback riding.

In return, local youth pay for their activities through community service initiatives such as beach cleanups and environmental awareness campaigns. There is a strong focus on giving back to our community and the Earth.

Your contributions are warmly appreciated and will help us build a brighter future through today's youth.

Many thanks from all of us at Toes!!

blood_donarBLOOD DONOR CLINIC in support of Canada Day holiday

On Friday July 2, Canadian Blood Services is holding an important blood donor clinic in support of the Canada Day holiday. It will be the first event held at the beautiful new Prospect Road Community Centre.

We need almost 100 more donors to attend this clinic. This will help us ensure a strong stable inventory throughout the weekend and into the beginning of the next week when cancer patients return to treatment, often requiring multiple transfusions in the process. The importance of this clinic is intensified as we lose a day of collections on July 1.

If you are available and eligible*, this is a perfect opportunity to see the new facility and save lives at the same time. You can also help by spreading the word to your friends, family and co-workers.

* Basic eligibility information can be found at www.blood.ca/eligibility

To book your appointment or for more information, call 1 888 2 DONATE today
