Editor:

Thank you to Jass Dhaliwal and his family for hosting a Vaisakhi celebration fort he entire neighbourhood. The chai tea and the pakora were delicious treats, as was learning about Vaisakhi. We enjoyed meeting and visiting with both old and new neighbours.

Hopefully this is the start of a trend towrad more gatherings across the city where residents can get to know their neighbours.

Well done and thank you again Jas and family.

Two of your grateful neighbours,

Ken Olafsen and Alys Wardlaw
