New Event
Lower turnout than expected, the event organizer expected City Staff to set-up canopies, tables, and chairs. Cars parked on the PE Trail, blocking access, asked to move and did not comply throughout the duration of the event.
New event
Mental health awareness dinner with speeches,
dancing, and a fashion show.
3 Community outreach event with music, games,
information, food, giveaways to leave a Real
Impact.
The group regularly lacks communication, relies on the City Staff to lead event set up. Event charged for entry. Did not communicate a Helicopter landing. Requested for kid zone games day before, which we were unable to accomodate.
Event was cancelled
2024: A well organized event. More timely
communication is recommended when requesting
equipment from public works.
