Thank you to all the LVAC members and guests who came out to our 30th anniversary award party and exhibition on Saturday!
We had a full house, perfect weather and some tasty treats from local gem Bombay on the Lake, as well as a wonderful conversation with our Century of Co-operation awardees.
I'd especially like to thank the volunteer crew who made this event happen, in order of appearance,
- Pat Lewis
- Sarah Jane Gorlitz
- Marija Toracki
- Jennifer Joiner
- Tim Hough
- Chris Christoff
- Larry Miller
- Wren Jackson
and our invited guests for helping us understand how LVAC came into being and why building more co-operative housing is key to solving Toronto's housing crisis.
- Ric Amis, co-founder of LVAC and Beaver Hall
- Tom Clement, CHFT Executive Director
- Christine Mounsteven, CHFT Board Member
- Grace Galvez, CHFT Land Trusts Coordinator
Finally, a shout-out to LVAC staff Donna Hamilton and Claudia Adao, who ensured that us organizers had the logistical support we needed to pull this off. Thank you!
We'll be back with a member event announcement on Wednesday and then resume our regular weekly posting schedule next Monday.
