If you weren't able to make it out this year, here's a quick look at what happened at our annual Summer Festival. We brought residents together for a fun-filled afternoon celebrating community, connection, and the many services available across the neighbourhood.
TNO programs and staff welcomed residents, shared information about available services, and helped strengthen connections within the community. Residents enjoyed fun activities and exciting raffle prizes, while the service tables provided an opportunity to ask questions, learn more about TNO’s programs, and connect face-to-face with staff.
Tables on-site included:
Grassroots leaders
· TPASN – Thorncliffe Park Autism Support Network
· A77
· TPUF – Thorncliffe Park Urban Farmers
· HENS - Home Essentials Newcomer Support
· Community Informative
· Thorncliffe Park Women’s Committee
TNO Departments
· Youth Program & Trades Connect
· VAW – Violence Against Women
· Housing Support Services
· EarlyON
· Employment Services
· Language and Skills Development
· Integrated & Personal Support for Seniors
· HATP – Health Access Thorncliffe Part
· Mental Health and YWHO (Youth Wellness Hub of Ontario)
From food, fun-filled performances and activities to community resources, the Summer Festival was a chance for residents to come together, learn what is available in their community, and enjoy the summer with their neighbours.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all our volunteers, Community Ambassadors, and TNO staff who contributed to making this event a great success and a fun-filled day for the community. Your time, dedication, and support helped make the day truly special!
If you missed it this time, keep an eye out for next year's summer festival! In the meantime, remember that many of the organizations and services featured at the festival are just a call or visit away, all year long.
