Community Safety Issues
Citizens On Patrol has been in place for the last five months and the Community would like to thank the volunteers for their time. The time and effort on their part seems to have made a difference in the amount of graffiti and property damage in the area. New training sessions for the Lavington/Coldstream/Vernon Area are held every few months. If you are interested in volunteering call Corrine Ross @ 542-3011 or Jerry McCrae @ 545-7161.
At our Lavington Community Association Meeting last Thursday,
the issue of skateboard accidents was raised. There have been
several accidents this year, thankfully none too serious. So
we would like to remind both parents and skateboarders, about
the importance of wearing helmets, knee & wrist protectors
when skateboarding.
Also a resident mentioned having to swerve to miss a go-cart when
traveling on School Road near Jeffers Park. Please be careful
out there.
Lavington Notes
Christmas is right around the corner so it is again time to share
our good fortune with others. Santa's Anonymous needs new, used
or repairable toys or books to continue donating to needy children
in the area. About 800 children received toys for Christmas last
year and about 170 receive birthday presents from the charitable
organization each year. There will be a donation box set up at
Lavington Esso.
For more information: Call Nadine Toop @ 545-8130
The Community Event Sign is in place at the Firehall and will
be lit shortly. The sign was provided by funds from Coldstream
Municipality, Lavington Volunteer Firefighters and the Community
Assn. Thanks to the Firemen for building a mount and putting
it in place. Messages for Non-profit organizations are free with
a $10 fee for personal messages when space is available.
