Community Socials Support Neighbourhood Connection

HALTON HILLS, ON – At the core of the Town’s Hey Neighbour program is a simple yet powerful goal – bringing neighbours together. By strengthening connections between residents, the Town is building a vibrant and engaged community. The upcoming Community Socials initiative aims to further strengthen the Town’s commitment to connected neighbourhood engagement.

“Knowing your neighbours is a hallmark of Small Town Living at its Best,” said Mayor Ann Lawlor. “The Hey Neighbour program supports our Town motto by providing residents with opportunities to meet and make personal connections though fun, informal gatherings.”

Social events are scheduled for each ward and provide an opportunity to meet other residents, chat with elected officials and learn about the Town in an approachable and friendly environment.

Community Socials will take place from 10:00 a.m. to noon at the following park locations:

• Saturday, May 10 - Ward 3 - Cedarvale Park, Georgetown  
• Saturday, June 7 - Ward 4 - Danby Road Park, Georgetown
