HAPPY SPRING!
Although it has not quite sprung yet, it is hopefully just around the corner! As the snow melts, please let us know if you see any damage to bike racks, planters or benches in front of your business or in the area. Village Landscaping has been contracted once again to do our flower planters and hanging baskets, it will be so nice to see some colour and greenery again!

Watch for the new community directory coming out next month. They will be delivered to every business and household in West Broadway and Wolseley. Thank you to all those supporting members who have placed an ad in the magazine! Please contact us to request a stack and counter top holder for your business.
