We're happy to report that Marcus, our original Adopt-A-Pet for the Month for February, has been adopted! So here is our new candidate: Leah Breed: Domestic Short Hair - Brown Tabby Leah is like a sidekick, she is just plain good company. She likes attention, and also she likes her solitude. Leah doesn't go looking for trouble, but isn't a scaredy-cat, either. She is a very sweet cat who would prefer to be petted than held. This loving girl is hoping to find her forever home. Could you see yourself cuddling up on the couch with her? Good news! The Oakville and Milton Humane Society facility has finally re-opened! You can see Leah and lots of other cute critters at 415 Cornwall Road. The OMHS telephone number is (905) 845-1551.  This concert supports Arthouse - a project that brings young people together through music, art, drama and ethnic cooking.

The WRRA has a newly constituted Board of Directors and Executive as of its December meeting. This year's members are: EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS You can see what they all look like here. Thanks to all of these neighbours who volunteer their time and energy to make West River a better place!  In our Fall Newsletter we asked if any teens wanted to make some extra cash by helping out their neighbours with various chores. Well, it turns out some teens do. And some adults, too!
