On a beautifully mild Sunday morning, staff, family and friends from Community Living Toronto joined over 1500 others and participated in the 17^th Annual Achilles St. Patrick’s Day 5K Run/Walk.

This year we raised over $922. The money raised from our team goes to support activities sponsored by Scarborough Regional Council. This includes drop-in, dances, literacy and cooking classes.

Everyone enjoyed the camaraderie and had a wonderful time. We hope you join us next year!

The Connection Dance Needs Your Help

By: Ellen Armstrong

After 17 years of volunteering at the Connection Dance, Alison Thomas and Ellen Armstrong are retiring.

In order for the dance to continue, we need two parent volunteers who can commit to showing up for 3 1/2 hours for 8 Friday evenings a year. The work involved is easy and really rewarding. Alison and I will still be involved as facilitators to Scarborough Council and will support the dance in many ways but will no longer be running it. Please help us to continue this much needed and well attended social activity. You can contact us or come to the dance and talk to us. Our next dance is April 29, 2016.

Please contact:                                             Ellen Armstrong at 416-938-4337 or          Alison Thomas at 416 678 6922.
