It's hard to believe, but skating season is almost over at our local rink at Campbell Park. The rink closes after Sunday February 28th, and the final pleasure skating session is on Saturday February 27th from 4:00-6:00pm.
The Saturday afternoon pleasure skate has been a huge success this year. Many people from all over the neighbourhood are coming, not just for the skating but to hang out in the friendly outdoor atmosphere with other neighbours. Lots of kids, and people just learning how to skate too. Even if you don't really like skating, it's fun to just hang out at the park and chat with people, or warm up by the campfire with some freshly-made donuts and hot chocolate.
For pleasure skating and shinny schedules, please check the City Rinks website.
Hope to see you all there.

Beverley Coburn, a personal trainer who runs Active Age Fitness, has been leading "Monday Night Runs" (and walks) in our area. Every week, these runs always lead to new places within a few kilometres of the Dupont and Lansdowne starting point.
These free events are a great way to get some exercise, explore our local neighbourhoods, and meet new people. Give it a try sometime.
The upcoming run will actually focus on our neighbourhood. Here's is the announcement email sent by Beverley:
