A place has not been found yet for this year's SWAP. Unfortunately, the Parkdale library is unable to have it.

TOY/BOOK/DVD SWAP

Hello all,

I wanted to get a sense of the interest for a Toy/Book/DVD SWAP in the late fall before skating season. It would be the cousin to the Clothing SWAP in the Spring. Perhaps, the remaining Toys/Books/DVDs could be split between local groups and international charities.

Thoughts?

SUCCESS AT DUFFERIN GROVE

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who helped with this year's SWAP (EROCA, SILVIE, Nicole, Sean from Oakland, Carol, Sarah, the Park staff, ...). We had around 25% more clothing this year than last and definitely more quality - which will hopefully be welcomed by those within the shelters - approximately 18 large garbage bags of clothes were donated.

AGAIN, thank you to all of those who helped and swapped!!
