The Park People are Coming to Withrow!

How Can We Make It Easier to Host Community Events in Parks?
Thursday, November 29th • 6:00pm-7:30pm
Frankland Community Centre • 816 Logan Ave

Having trouble understanding the city's insurance form? Do you need a permit? Why do you need to pay for a permit? Join Toronto Park People, Friends of Withrow Park and Parks Forestry and Recreation staff for a discussion about how to make it easier for Friends of the Park groups to plan events in parks. If you want to host an event in 2013, tell the story of your past efforts to animate your park, or suggest solutions, please join us!
Friends of Withrow Park will also share their own successes and challenges with events in their park like their pumpkin parade and campfire.
The Frankland Community Centre is located at 816 Logan Ave., two blocks west of Carlaw Avenue and just south of the Danforth Avenue. The closest subway stop is Chester Station on the Bloor-Danforth Line.
Hope to see you all there!
