February 10 (Tuesday) - Community Renewal
The bioregional approach to community enhancement places very high value on
activities that unite individuals to create of a sense of place that is safe,
healthy, and productive while also retaining continuity of the region’s
natural and cultural history. The community becomes, an extension of one’s very
selfhood.
It implies a sensitivity and respect to the uniqueness of our neighbourhood
and how it can be expressed in the infrastructure, symbols, images, art, rituals
and
other cultural expressions of the community. Tonight, the neighbours of Upper
Prince Street will present an oral history of our community.
We will then open discussion to uncover strengths, weaknesses, opportunities
and threats impacting our municipality and
actions we can implement to enhance our neighbourhood.
