WELCOME WEL COME
Camrose
A
“good neighbour” contest is happening in the City of Camrose and Camrose County during the month of May. It is part of a much broader initiative under a new banner labelled WelCOME Camrose. This is slated to be a far more encompassing year-round campaign which will encourage and reward neighbourly individuals, families, and even select businesses. Nominations for the present contest will be accepted from May 1 to 31. If you know of someone who models community spirit, excels in times of need, and has mastered the art of encouraging neighbours to get together and connect, complete an entry form at Camrose Public Library. Or, simply summarize your entry in an email to louise@cfeastcentral.ca. You and your nominee could win $50 gift certificates to Boston Pizza. For more information on the WelCOME Camrose campaign, see page 2.
