LITTLE LIBRARY

Calling all neighbourhood carpenters or crafters. 
It would be wonderful to have a little free library in Gilmore Park! 
It's a "take a book, return a book" gathering place where neighbours share their favorite literature of stories.  If you are interested in helping build a library box please email Tammy at gilmorepark@live.com

RECYCLING IN THE PARK

Recently a birthday party was held in Gilmore Park and the party host separated out the containers which can be returned for a refund.  We happily collected the bottles to put towards community league funds.  If you host a party at the park we welcome you to do the same just let us know they are there for pick-up!
