THIS IS THE NEW
WRRA WEBSITE!
As you can see, we've got a whole new look. The website has been completely re-designed from top to bottom!.
Some of the new features are:
- Multi-level pull-down menu system
- Overhaul of the organization of articles into categories making things easier to find
- Search box to locate articles quickly
- Photo galleries where you can scan/enlarge pictures or run them as a slide show
- Street Captains section that includes a Google map showing all of their locations
- Upcoming events calendar
- Oakville weather
- and a Contact Us page that makes it easy to send us a note.
We're enormously indebted to WRRA member and web guru Rikki Wright for lending his expertise and many hours to help make this new website happen.
One more thing: in the upper left corner of the home page is a Login area. It is not necessary to login to view the site, but we are now able to hold official WRRA votes online, and will do so whenever a matter needs a decision by our membership.. Voting will require you to register and login.
So if you're a paid up member, why not take a minute and sign up? Then you'll be all set whenever our first vote comes up. There's a "register" link under the Login boxes - that's what to click on.
Again, welcome, and we hope you enjoy the new site.

FESTIVAL QUATTRO PRESENTS SALUTE TO YOUTH



Our West River area contains many hidden treasures. These photos were taken by WRRA Board Member Paul Jemison and his wife Tricia in the Spring of 2010 while they were kayaking on the 16-Mile Creek, which backs onto their house.
In 1805, all the lands on the northern shore of Lake Ontario between Etobicoke and Hamilton, except the land situated at the mouths of Twelve Mile Creek and Sixteen Mile Creek, were purchased by the Assembly of Upper Canada from the Mississauga Indians.
