Nature photographer Colin Winn
By Kathy Rowe
On Wednesday, November 20 at 7 p.m. we will be holding our AGM at the Port Union Community Centre. Let me say that community associations like ours play a vital role in today’s world. We are the voice of the Centennial community, and our job is to advocate on your behalf by liaising with our local representatives.
We are dedicated to essential work such as preserving the character of our neighbourhood, keeping it safe and fostering a deep sense of community among all residents. If you have some time to give and feel passionate about this community, I urge you to join us on November 20, learn about our board, and consider stepping up to be a part of this very important organization.
Meet Photographer Colin Winn
To keep our 75th anniversary celebration going we will be offering refreshments and a slice of our beautiful commemorative cake to all who join us. Come and meet our special guest speaker, Colin Winn. Colin is the founder and administrator of the popular West Rouge Photography Facebook page, which features extraordinary photos of our corner of Scarborough from many local amateur photographers.
Colin is a gifted nature photographer. He is well known for his distinguished pictures, many of which capture the wilderness and wildlife at the mouth of the Rouge River. Colin will show us some of his incredible photos and share stories of his adventures within the breathtaking surroundings right where we live!
I hope to see you on November 20.
