These are the people in your neighbourhood
This month we are featuring Tesha Owen.  Tesha has been operating a Day Home for the past 8 years.  When you see Tesha around the neighbourhood she is usually surrounded by kids or out delivering the Sherwood Park News with her family.




Q&A with Tesha
Q: How long have you lived in Glen Allan?
 
Four and a half years.
Q: What do you like about your neighbourhood? The biggest I like about my neighborhood is our location. Our street is quiet and doesn't have alot of traffic making it safe for my kids to play outside. I like being so close to the park and that we don't have to cross any big streets. I like that I know most of our neighbors and enjoy out little chats as our paths cross.
Q: What is your favourite community memory? My favourite memory would be our annual summer street BBQ'S. I enjoy sitting around the fire and visiting with my neighbors.
Q: What quote inspires you?  My quote that inspires me is Joshua 24:15 "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord"

Neighbourhood Exchange!
