A New Blog....

Hello again!
Well, I missed Blogging a lot, so I started a new one! It's a bit more personal, but I'll still list neighbourhood events.
Check it out:

Hello Again!

Hello all,
I just wanted to write a final post to say that I'm missing AnnexNation. I love our community and I liked that this BLOG pulled our ties a little bit closer and made our bustling, thriving downtown community a wee bit cozier.
But I'm happy to say that I will be continuing in the community-building vein by writing a monthly events column for The Annex Gleaner.
So if you want to continue sending along info about your local events and activities, please email them to me at annexevents@gmail.com, but bear in mind that publishing won't be as immediate as it was on the BLOG.
I look forward to hearing from everyone and staying in touch!
Cheers,
Vanessa

AnnexNation

Dear AnnexNation Readers:

One year and many posts later, I've decided to end the run of this neighbourhood site. There are just too many demands on my time and it is much more difficult to run this thing on my own. It has been great fun this year and thanks for all the comments and feedback.

Remember to look for a community meeting regarding the redesign of Sibelius Square in late October at the Walmer Baptist Church.

All the Best,
Ginny

Eye Candy Friday


Orange Lantern Blossoms, that's what my kids named these treasures they found today on a walk through Seaton Village.

What's Happening

Looking at another beautiful fall weekend around the corner and some notes on things to keep you busy:

By daylight, check out Palmerston Community Daycare's Annual FallFest at Palmerston School in Seaton Village on Saturday, September 27, from 11am-3pm. The music is always excellent at this event and there are lots of activities for the kiddos.

Also, on Saturday morning beginning at 9am the Howland Avenue Street Sale takes over the block of Howland Avenue just south of Dupont. There is always a crowd and great deals to boot.

This Sunday, from 11am-6pm at Queen's Park look for Word on the Street, Toronto's yearly gathering of books and the people who read them.

By night, check out the Abilities Art Festival at the Miles Nadal JCC on Saturday evening from 6-10pm, Tickets: $9/7 1-888-844-9991x2 www.abilitiesartsfestival.org. At the Bloor Cinema this Friday and Saturday night look for the Student Shorts Film Festival. Bonus, students are free.
