I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable summer despite the wet cool weather for a good part of the summer.

 

On June 20th we held Highland Creek Heritage Day.  Unfortunately the weather did not co-operate with most of the day being rainy and cool.   Despite the weather we were able to hold the parade but some of the planned afternoon activities were not held.  Nevertheless the turn out from the community was great in spite of the weather.  CCRA is pleased to provide a financial contribution to ensure the success of this event.   Unfortunately the Summer Concert series had to be cancelled due to the strike at the City.

 

The City of Toronto along with other community groups and the CCRA is planning a week long community celebration September 21-26.  During this week we will be marking the:

 

  •  60th Anniversary of CCRA, 

  •  25TH Anniversary of the Port Union Recreation Centre,

  •  25th Anniversary of the Port Union Seniors,

  •  25th Anniversary of the Port Union Library.
