Description
As a token of our appreciation, Project Watershed will be throwing a party at the Old House Hotel on January 28th. All donors, volunteers and members are invited to attend and are asked to sign up for one of the sessions below so we can accommodate everyone. We will have snacks (thank you to Thrify Foods and Atlas Cafe who have generously donated), refreshments and some items to give away. We will showcase our new display materials and have staff and board members present to answer questions about any of our projects.
As 2023 is our 30th year in operation, this event will also launch our 30th anniversary celebrations. Over the next 12 months we plan on celebrating our 30th year in a variety of ways and priming our organization for the future. To help celebrate and inform this process we will be looking for your input and feedback on our organization, projects and future endeavours!
