In the Community Corner….

Music to your ears –

Micah Sky is a Toronto based singer/songwriter, producer and multi instrumentalist. Starting with piano lessons at age 7, then moving into production in his teenage years, he has grown steadily as a musician over the last two decades, teaching himself drums, guitar, and singing. When he’s not home practicing or producing, you can hear him performing in Toronto with Dave Borins or David Celia at The Cameron House, or doing summer festival circuits with The Conor Gains Band. Check out Micah’s performance on the train platform this Saturday, 9am to 1pm!

At the Community Table –

This week, Secondhand Sunday is at the train platform! Sunday, September 29th is your chance to share any unwanted, reusable items. Simply leave them on your property next to the sidewalk or curb for your neighbours to take for free. That thing your neighbour no longer wants could be exactly what you need too.
