Last Minute Call Out

Friday, May 27, 2011

This post is coming with very short notice but I would like to send out an invitation to all of you to join the Mural Committee on Tuesday, May 31st from 4-5:30 p.m. for an update on the Mural Project and our current status. The reason for this short notice is that today we hit a road block that we need your input on and your thoughts on how to over come it.


The meeting will be on Tuesday, May 31st at 4 p.m. at West St. Andrew's church. If you have any questions or concerns that you would like to ask me before this meeting please feel free to contact me. Please leave a comment and share your thoughts on this post.

I hope to see you on Tuesday.

New Life

Monday, May 9, 2011


If you remember back in early November we had a group of Girl Guides come in and plant a couple dozen tulips at the Train Station as the beginning of the re-landscaping around the Station.
After a long winter the tulips have finally pushed through the soil and have made a grand appearance. The flowers are beautiful and already making a huge difference in brightening up the property. Thanks girls for bringing new life to the Station.

Community Clean Up

When I started in the morning I was convinced the rain had scared everyone away and that I was going to be left to my own devices to clean up around the station. But then, much to my relief Nancy, Jim and Robin came to clean up the future site of the Community Garden. These three West End Gardeners were there preparing the site to be tilled, cleaning up any debri and garbage that may have drifted onto their land as well as digging out old cement blocks; saving the plow from being seriously damaged (thanks Jeff).
Jim, Nancy and Robin, thank you for coming out and showing your support for this project. You have some beautiful land that is going to really make an impact in your community. Thanks for "pitching-in" and making the community clean up day a success.
Happy planting!

Let's Clean Up

Friday, May 6, 2011

So it looks like we will finally have our clean up day this Saturday. If you are willing and able, come out to the St. Catharines Train Station for a morning of "Spring" cleaning. Our objective will be to pick up some garbage and give the Station a once over before the summer months hit.


10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Meet at the West end of the building where we planted the tulips last year.
Come ready to work!

Please leave a comment if you are coming so we can plan accordingly.
Hope to see you there!
