Highlights
Some fan favourites to watch out for:
- Settlement Services: Lily, a settlement worker from YMCA Three Rivers is providing any newcomers with help they may need! Think help with forms, documents, and any other related processes, connections and transitions! Listowel Branch, the 3rd Wednesday of every month, 12:30-4pm
- Community Crafts: Come get crafty with the North Perth Public Library! This is a program is geared for individuals (and their caretakers/support workers) to gather, craft, and meet other members of our community. It's free, it's fun, and anyone is welcome to join!! Listowel Branch, Second Tuesday of each month, 2pm
Always keep your eyes peeled for large community events on March Break, summer months, and Ontario Public Library Month (October).
