Hi Friends,

I want to invite you all to the sod turning ceremony for our new 58-unit housing project, which is being build adjacent to our current building.  Although it is a ‘sod turning’ ceremony construction has already started. (We didn’t want to turn the sod in winter!)  This new facility will provide at risk and low income individuals with safe, affordable housing and help them increase their independence, while still being able to access the services provide by the Lighthouse, such as meals and wellness programs.

The sod turning celebration is this Friday, June 24, 2011 at 11:00am, at 227 – 20th St. E.  There will be refreshments to follow.

Please RSVP to thelighthouse@hotmail.ca, if you are planning to attend.  We look forward to sharing The Lighthouse’s continuing mission with you.

The construction is expected to be completed for Spring of 2012.
