There have been some enquiries about resurrecting the Collective Kitchen.  This differs from the Community Kitchen in that it is the Collective Kitchen's participants who do their own shopping and organizing, and it is in the evening.  I have tentatively booked the kitchen for the 3rd Thursday of June (June 18th) from 6 pm to 10 pm.  I would like a Coordinator for the Collective Kitchen and this person would ensure that the participants have a Community Membership and would collect the "drop in" fee, as well as seeing to the other administrative needs of the group. If anyone is interested in this venture (or should that be "adventure"?), please call and register with Elizabeth at 283-0554, ext. 225.

Do you need help with your summer project?  The Youth Works crew can help!  Local youth learn employment and life skills during the summer.  The crew consists of seven youth, 12 - 15 years old, and their adult supervisor.  They are available for projects such as painting, cleaning, yardwork, gardening, etc. The group always works together.  Jobs must be within Hillhurst-Sunnyside for seniors, groups, or organizations.  There is no standard charge for work completed but donations are gladly accepted.  If your church or school group, or community organization would like to support this local initiative and reap the rewards of affordable labour, contact Elizabeth at 403-283-0554, Ext. 225 for more information.

 The Hillhurst Sunnyside Community Association's Book Club will continue to meet the second Thursday of every month.
