Issue 24 . August 2012 • sjcommunitynewspaper@gmail.com • The YMCA-YWCA Of Greater Saint John Rebirth Of Marsh Creek - Building Healthy Communities
Pictured above:Tim Vickers and Graeme Stewart-Robertson of ACAP Saint John conduct live trapping of fish in the lower reaches of Marsh Creek. (Photo courtesy of Crystal Colpitts) By Tim Vickers The construction activity along Crown Street, and the minor inconvenience that comes with it, is a small price to pay for the benefits that will be enjoyed by those who live, work or travel near the lower end of Marsh Creek. This construction represents one of the final stages of the long-awaited Harbour Cleanup Project, which will end the dumping of raw sewage into our local waterways. This historic project represents the single greatest improvement in our regional environment in a generation. While the benefits of Harbour Cleanup will not be felt until next year, we can take immediate comfort in knowing that our children will grow up in a safer and cleaner Saint John.
Coordinators Comments
By Cindy Floyd Students from the Y Settlement Services are planting seeds and tending the earth at various community gardens in and around Saint John. Over 20 families are benefitting from the opportunity to plant small gardens at Rockwood Park, Rainbow Park, and an international community garden in French Village. The students have plots in French Village and are bussed there twice a week to tend the garden. This garden is the brainchild of Rhonda and David Peterson, and they enjoy sharing the gardening experience with the international students. These community gardens provide wonderful opportunities. Many of the families are growing carrots, peas, and beans for the first time. They also have an opportunity to grow vegetables similar to their native land and are enjoying the tastes of home as well as experimenting with new Canadian dishes. The gardeners are proud to have a piece of land in the community and reaping much more than the benefit of healthy produce.
Queens Square Farmers Market By Jodi Kliffer Over the past year, Saint Johnners have come to know and love the Queen Square Farmers Market. Established in the fall of 2011, the Market has quickly become a favourite event for people from around the greater Saint John area. The Market is located in the heart of the city’s South End, surrounded by the unique beauty and charm of one of Pictured above:Allison Gayton the most historic neighbourhoods in the country. It is an open-air market that celebrates locally grown vegetables, homemade foods and amazing local artisan goods. The next market will be August 19, from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm. See you there!

The theme for issue 24 of Around The Block is the “Environment and Community Beautification.” You will read about how there are efforts to brighten up our communities with new planter boxes, new patio gardens and the continuing growth of our community gardens. The environnment means different things to many different folks. It might mean the rebirth of Marsh Creek, or how we can save on our power bills by using our clothes lines more this time of year. Walking, using the bus and comex or riding your bike with helmet to and from work allcontribute to our enviroment.
Remembering The Youth We Lost By Nancy Robichaud The youth of the Saint John Boys and Girls club wanted something to remember the youth we lost.
I live in Crescent Valley where they introduced the Blue Run on Saturday mornings. I wasn’t sure if this was what I wanted to do. I separated everything by categories; plastic, tin, cardboard, milk jugs... But I will tell you, it works. You would not believe how much these efforts have reduced my curbside garbage. I encourage everyone to use the conveniently placed Fundy Solid Waste Blue Bins around our city. The stories in this issue reflect the ideas and plans of many community residents and our community partners. Happy reading.
They came up with an idea, so with lots of help from volunteers and staff they decided to do a garden in the shape of a heart. It’s located on Brunswick Drive. They tilled and planted all the flowers and took care of the garden. The memorial rock was donated by former MLA Dr. Ed Doherty and the former Liberal government. The poem engraved on the rock was written by Jack Robichaud, the flower garden is a beautiful rememberance of our lost youth.

The Beauty Of Our Neighbourhood
Having Fun While Making A Difference By Gina Reid Every summer for the past nine years, a group of dedicated young people havecommitted their summer to improving their community and this year has been no exception! So far this summer, the ONE Change YIP (Youth Inclusion Program) has had over 55 youth ages 11-17 take part in the ONE Teen Summer Take Over program.
By Victoria Fleming One of my favourite things to do is to take a few extra turns on my way home to admire the beautiful neighbourhood of the Old North End (ONE). A smile crosses my face as I smell a freshly-mowed hill that was, 15 years ago, the perfect place for sliding in the winter time. Now, I can see how the community has come together in recent years to make the ONE a place that we are proud to call our home by painting over graffiti, picking up garbage, turning vacant lots into stunning gardens and giving an inner-city park a dramatic makeover. Our neighbourhood is beautiful because of all of the residents who care so much about it. Let’s continue to do our part and work together to keep the ONE an attractive community!
While some of their peers are taking the summer off, these kids are working hard to make a positive impact in their neighbourhood through activities such as; clean ups, painting of Lorne Middle School bunkers, working at Shamrock Community Garden, initiating senior/youth mentoring, fundraising and taking part in many learning sessions.
ONE Walking Club
The community thanks you for your continued efforts. Keep up the good work!
Recycling Management By Anthony Tascon Recycling management has been making a positive impact in the world we live in, and it has been making its way through the city of Saint John over the past couple of years. Although not everyone may be familiar with recycling procedures, there are many ways to help the environment that are simple, time efficient and best of yet, free. Recycling helps to limit the amount of glass, paper and plastic being made. This will result with less garbage in landfills because the glass, paper and plastic are being reused. Recycling helps make our earth a less polluted place and reduces amount of trash that does not decompose in our landfills. For example, glass can keep being recycled since it never wears down. If a glass bottle is not recycled, it can take 40 centuries (4000 years!) to be broken down. Another fact about recycling glass is a 100 watt light bulb can be lit for four hours from the energy saved by recycling a glass bottle. Think of all the money you could save by recycling over an extended period of time!
Did You Know? When you purchase one cup of coffee in a disposable container every day, you create about 23 pounds of waste each year.
By Brenda Hope The ONE Change walking club has been walking for three weeks now. We currently have six members that meet Mon., Wed. and Fri. at 10 am. Our walks range between two and three kilometres and we have seen quite a bit of Saint John’s North End. We have walked The Old North End, Harbour Passage, Douglas Ave., Crescent Valley, Millidge Ave. and Spar Cove Road. I am impressed with the amount of green space in the form of walking trails, community gardens and parks there is in our community. Come and join us.
One Change Updates Every Monday for the month of Aug, ONE Change has the wonderful staff of the Saint John Library over to read and do crafts with the kids. Aug 13; Family Movie in Victoria Park, popcorn and drinks will be provided. Come early to get a front row seat. Movie starts at 9 pm. Aug 15; Family Street Dance, lots of prizes.

The Beauty Of Our Neighbourhood Rainbow Park Splash Pad Opening
LITTER
By David Blaney Cigarette butts and packages, cups, candy wrappers, napkins, gum, flyers, bottles, cans and worse! You have to wonder: are litterers unconscious during the act of littering, or are they completely aware and just do not care about their community? We do know that un-repaired broken windows cause more broken windows and litter attracts more litter. So, some “crazy” folks pick up that litter as best they can, not without some risk, to ensure the litterers do not win out. Maybe the growing number of those who think beyond their own property line - the community - will eventually convince litterers that we are in this environment together and that everyone must do their part to protect it.
By Mary LeSage Thanks to the firefighters from Carmarthern Street Fire Station for bringing down the rig and entertaining the kids. A special thanks goes out to Lt. Tony Gautreau, who surprised us with his playing of the cello (big violin)! Maybe next year we will have a talent show.
In Memory Of Kylee

By Christine Roy and Katie Heffernan Last school year, our partners at Irving Oil started a tutoring program at our school to help support our students with literacy. The initial program started with two tutors per child for our grade two students. We were thrilled at the start of this school year when Carolyn Van der Veen approached us about expanding the tutoring program to include students from Pictured above: Mike Asher, Presigrades one to five. We are dent of Irving Oil with grade 3 astounded by the commitment student Ha Vu and dedication of the Irving Oil employees, along with thepresident of Irving Oil Mr. Mike Asher, who come faithfully each week to work with their assigned student. As a result, our students not only benefit from extra literacy support but positive interactions with adults from our community. We would like to recognize and thank Irving Oil, in particular Carolyn Van der Veen and Lisa Savidant, for supporting our students in achieving academic success!
Comings And Goings At P.U.L.S.E By Mary LeSage We have been busy with our Wellness Clinics. New patients are coming every month! Our next one is Aug. 21 from 1 - 4 pm.

CV Caring For The Enviroment
Upgrading CV Flower Beds
By Ann Barrett The CV Caring project started two years ago with the Crescent Valley Resource Centre (CVRC) receiving funds from the Environmental Trust Fund for our recycling / compost project. Again, this year we received $15,000 to extend the project and to hire four residents.
By Anne Driscoll Keeping Crescent Valley in tiptop shape requires help from many community partners and volunteers.
The Reps have been going door to door in CV in their bright blue shirts and getting lots of questions. They give out info on how to recycle and use compost bins to lessen the amount of garbage. They deliver storage bags for the recyclables, compost containers and secure garbage cans.
Recently, volunteers from McInnes Cooper law firm stopped by the Crescent Valley Resource Centre to lend a hand. They were there because the garden beds in front of the Centre were overgrown with weeds and looked worn out.

A day of mowing, pruning, digging, pulling, transplanting and lots of fun resulted in beautiful new garden beds at the Centre.
Crescent Valley Resource Centre Recieves Funds CVRC received funds from NB Children's Foundation to support their Summer Squad Program for children from five to 12.
Other sponsors of the project are Department of Social Development, Fundy Solid Waste Corporation and the Blue Run.
Learning Continues Throughout The Summer By Krista Turnbull While the summer months bring fun activities with a break from school for students, a special program has been active at Hazen-White/St. Francis School this summer. Transitioning back to the school environment can be difficult for Pre-K students after Summer Break. With this in mind, the Promise Partnership at UNB Saint John embarked on a new program filled with fun activities for the Pre-K students in Crescent Valley. Wed. and Thur. mornings, Pre-K children have been attending the new summer program, allowing them the opportunity to continue to play with their friends, while working on some of the early learning concepts that are covered in the regular Pre-K program. For more information on the program please contact Kathryn Asher with the Promise Partnership at 648-5611.
Did You Know? If each household in Canada replaced one roll of virgin toilet paper with just one roll of recycled toilet paper, we could: • save 47,962 trees • save 3,204 cubic metres of landfill space, equal to 181 full garbage trucks • save 65.5 million litres of water, a year’s supply for 135 fami lies of four • avoid 4, 567 kilograms of air and water pollution from manufacturing

Caring For Our Enviroment By Elaine Orser In past years, the trend of disposable things has caused dumps to fill up and toxic waste to pollute our land, water and air. Millions of dollars are spent each year on clean up that could be used on education, etc. How do we prevent this from getting worse? Buy reusable products, recycle paper and boxboard (cereal type boxes), plastic, metal and corrugated cardboard. Composting prevents animals from being attracted to your garbage cans and remember to use compost bags. You will have less garbage to take to the curb and a cleaner environment for you and your grandchildren. We cannot move to another planter, so let’s take care of the one we have.

Westside P.A.C.T Annual Community Cleanup By Mary Lou Price The Westside P.A.C.T. Community Group held our Annual Community Cleanup and BBQ with St. Patrick’s elementary school in June. Grades K - 5 were assigned certain areas surrounding the school where they picked up garbage and learned the importance of keeping their community clean. St. Patrick’s School PALS at Saint John Energy provided the barbeque and did all the cooking. Westside P.A.C.T. received donations to feed our hungry troops from Saputo Foods, Tim Horton’s King St West, No Frills and Sobeys. The Saint John Police Force and Saint John Fire Department were also on hand to help out, as well as numerous community volunteers. A BIG THANK YOU to the students and community partners for the great day!

Summer Heat
By Krista Turnbull Once again this year, Westside P.A.C.T. was fortunate enough to receive funding to assist them in hiring 2 summer students. Thanks to this support, the popular “Summer Heat” program was offered to children aged 4 -12 years for two weeks in July. The program, which is free of charge, was held at St. Patrick’s School and had a fantastic turnout. Children enjoyed a variety of activities in the gym including zumba, yoga, boxing, karate, and arts and crafts. A healthy snack was provided each day and the beautiful weather both weeks allowed for lots of outdoor playtime as well. Special thanks to Westside P.A.C.T. and the wonderful camp counselors, Megan and Chantel, for providing the kids with a fantastic twoweek summer experience.

Beautifying Waterloo Village
Beautifying Sophia Recovery Centre By Valerie Collins with Penni Eisenhauer Valerie Collin’s work experience has been at a greenhouse and she wanted to find a way to give back to Sophia Recovery Centre for all the help she was receiving in building a foundation to start the healing process in her recovery. In the beginning the gated garden outside of the Centre was full of weeds, was overgrown, and had no flowers. Starting in May - June 2012 Valerie started bringing flowers donated from Primrose Gardens in Barnsville, NB, including cement blocks for the pathway and patio, as well as a Bistro/Patio set donated by Home Hardware. “As I weeded I was able to open up to the other women in recovery,” said Valerie, “and the women took interest in the project and this year I had lots of help.” A special ‘thank you’ to Brenda S. for continuing with the upkeep as Valerie lives outside of the city. Valerie would like to thank all the staff and her friends at the Centre for all their continued support, and the Centre for providing a safe home away from home.
Coverdale Centre Beautification Project
By Mary Saulnier - Taylor Coverdale Centre for Women Inc. takes pride in being part of the Waterloo Village Neighbourhood. Recently we had two ladies assisting the Centre in starting a garden in the backyard. Although it is a small area a wonderful thoughtful plan was created to form a colorful addition to our outdoor living area. One lady worked hard at cleaning and designing the garden while the other lady added a personal touch by hand painting rocks with inspiring words. The garden is enjoyed by all who visit and is a welcoming place to sit and relax. The goal of the Centre is to continue encouraging ladies to participate and incorporate their ideas for the rest of the yard. The garden’s importance was quoted best in one lady’s words, “It’s hard not to smile even on a bad day when you see beautiful flowers”.
By Penni Eisenhauer and Bev Barwell This year the Waterloo Village Association (WVA) beautified the neighbourhood with flowers donated from the Saint John Horticultural Association. Bev Barwell, a resident of the neighbourhood, and I worked together filling the planters adopted by community partners: the Teen Resource Centre, Coverdale Centre for Women, SJ Learning Exchange, and the Loan Fund. The community partners take care of weeding and watering the plants. The WVA takes pride in making the neighbourhood a beautiful place to live and continues to strive towards engaging new resident involvement. If anyone would like to know more information about the association please contact Penni at 343-5382 or commorg.penni@gmail. com.
Compost Helps Your Garden Grow By Brenda McCullum Did you know the food and yard waste you put into your compost cart is turned into valuable soil which helps nourish plants?
The Fundy Region Solid Waste Commission built the Stephen Park Community Garden using finished compost. Lots of fresh vegetables have been enjoyed by residents. Composting is the natural recycling program. All the food and yard waste you place in your compost cart is turned into nutrient rich finished compost and is sold for use in local gardens and lawns throughout the region, producing beautiful crops like the one in this photo. Visit www.FundyRecycles.com or call 738-1212 for details on how you can compost. Summer Compost Tips: • Wrap meat, bones & shellfish in newspaper before placing in your bin. • Using newspaper to line your small compost bin will help keep odours down.
News From The Waterloo Village The Waterloo Village Association has worked on projects this summer that have impacted the environment and beautified the neighbourhood. In June the association held its annual Neighborhood Clean Up and had 25 residents engaged and picked up close to 30 bags of garbage. Also, every year the association fills their planters with flowers donated from the SJ Horticultural Association and thanks to residents and community partners the planters are weeded and watered. The Association also worked on getting several new garbage cans throughout the neighborhood which helps keep the neighbourhood clean and new crosswalks on Waterloo Street to keep everyone safe. If you are interested in getting involved in your neighbourhood the next meeting is Wed., Sept. 12, at 12 noon, 148 Waterloo Street. For more information feel free to contact Penni at 343-5382.
• Rinse out your cart after it has been emptied. • Remember all leaves and yard waste must be collected as compost. Leaves and yard waste will not be picked up if they are in the garbage.

Grand Opening Of Glen Falls Community Playground
Centennial School Participates In Marigolds On Main Street
By Kate Heffernan On the last day of school the students of Glen Falls School celebrated the grand opening of the Glen Falls Community Playground. The playground was brand new to the school this year. The Glen Falls Garden Club helped beautify the area around the playground and planted flowers around the school yard. The playPictured above: Kathy Young, Principal of ground is a great addition Glen Falls, Steve Belyea andToby Bourque to the Glen Falls Comof Base Engineering, and Lesley Dickson munity! of Irving Oil at the opening of the Glen Falls Community Playground. (Photo Courtesy of Kate Heffernan)
By Caitlin Corkum We were very honoured and excited to participate in Marigolds on Main Street’s fifteenth year of planting! We were especially excited because one of our kindergarten teachers, Cynthia Fleming, was recognized for her dedication to the Marigolds Project for so many years! The students worked so hard in the classroom making sure the marigolds would grow, giving them lots of love and water (maybe sometimes too much) and then worked tirelessly planting all the beautiful flowers. This year the theme of Marigolds was wellness, so the students got to try their hands (and feet) at Zumba, and before heading back to the school they worked their way through an obstacle course. The treat of the day, SNOW CONES, were just what everyone needed after a morning of planting.
Prince Charles Students Get Dirty
HWSF School Plants Marigolds At The Regional Hospital
The students of Prince Charles got their hands dirty and made things look beautiful at the school this spring! With the help of some fantastic volunteers from one of our PALS partners, Wyndham Worldwide, the students and staff spent a sunny afternoon working in our learning garden, out at the playground, and down on our field making sure our Pictured above: Prince Charles students grounds were in tip top enjoy planting marigolds with their PALS shape. It was great seeing all our students with their gloves and tongs working alongside our volunteers, weeding our flower beds, picking up garbage, and making our grounds look pretty great! We didn’t think our grounds could look any better but just a couple weeks later we were proven wrong! Our students and staff paired up with our PALS at J. D. Irving Limited and many more of our volunteers and spent another sunny day planting marigolds as part of the Marigolds on Main Street campaign. Not only did our students plant over 50 flats of flowers but they grew them too! The students planted their seeds in March, cared for them every day, and watched them turn into big beautiful flowers! We had students who were planting marigolds for the first time and some who were planting for the ninth time! It was another fantastic day that ended with our delicious annual PALS BBQ!!! Thank you to all the volunteers, staff, and students who made Prince Charles a little bit brighter and added colour to Union Street!
Hazen-White/St. Francis School partnered with their PALS at Horizon Health and planted marigolds together on Tucker Park Road, at the entrance to the Saint John Regional Hospital and UNB Saint John. Students had worked diligently in their classrooms for several months, tending to the seedlings they had started. The outing started with a bus ride for Mr. Tremblay’s grade 4 class and Mme. Marr’s grade 5 class to the site, trays in hand. Our PALS had prepared the Pictured above: Alicia Petersen and soil for us ahead of time and Marissa Carr were also on hand to help (Photo Courtesy of Krista Turnbull) with the planting and traffic control. The students had an enjoyable time planting their marigolds and the weather was perfect for gardening with friends. A walk to the hospital resulted in a surprise snack of fresh fruit and drinks and fun treat bags filled with summer goodies. We even had some time on the awesome playground while we waited for our bus. Thanks so much to our PALS at Horizon Health for all their hard work in preparing for our exciting adventure and doing the planting with us. It’s always fun to spend time with PALS!
Marigolds At The Port By Katie Heffernan, Community School/PALS Coordinator Glen Falls/St. John the Baptist - King Edward School This year the students of St. John the Baptist – King Edward School were invited to participate in the Marigold Project. With help from the Saint John Port Authority, classes were given the materials to grow the marigolds in their classrooms. Students were invited to plant their flowers at the cruise ship terminal on Water Street, just a short walk from our school.

Earth Hour 2012 Earth Hour is a global grass-roots movement encouraging individuals, businesses and governments around the world to take positive actions for the environment by turning off their lights for one designated hour. On March 31, New Brunswickers participated in Earth Hour 2012 and saved enough energy to power approximately 15,000 homes which is also the equivalent to turning off more than 2.1 million 13 watt compact fluorescent light bulbs. Many communities around the province are already holding annual Earth Hour events to celebrate their commitment to the planet.

By Clare Northcott Safe Harbour Transitional Youth Services is being established in response to the identified need of addressing Youth Homelessness in the southern New Brunswick region. There are currently an estimated 100 homeless and at-risk youth in need of transitional housPictured above left to right: Danny ing in the Saint John area. Jardine presents cheque to Colin MacThe transition house operatdonald and Rev.Paul Ranson ing plan has been designed based on best practices from across Canada, and adapted to fit the community needs of the region. Safe Harbour will be a 10-bedroom house that provides an exit from the streets, parks, and other vulnerable situations. Safe Harbour will provide an emergency housing program as part of a youth-serving continuum in collaboration with The Resource Center for Youth (TRC), and The ONE LIFE program. Without the basic necessities of shelter, food, clothing and support that Safe Harbour can provide, it can be very difficult for youth to transition to an independent and rewarding life. Youth who enter the house are expected to stay for up to 90 days with the potential for an additional 90-day stay while they work towards establishing a place in society for themselves. The desired outcome is to provide youth with comprehensive, wraparound services that give them every opportunity to be healthy, happy and contributing members of our community.
By Kathryn Asher Once a week this summer, UNB Saint John’s Promise Partnership holds Campus Discovery Nights, a science-based, hands-on discovery program. The program is open to Hazen-White/St. Francis middle school students and promotes excitement in science. In July, Campus Discovery Nights students made pizza box solar ovens in order to learn about the science behind sustainable energy sources like the sun. Each student made their own solar oven, which they used to cook s’ mores on campus. Participants were surprised that such basic materials: black construction paper, newspaper, pizza boxes, plastic, and tin foil - could harness enough energy to produce a heat of up to 250 °F. After the session, students were able to bring their solar ovens home to share the science experiment with others. For more information on the Promise Partnership, contact Kathryn Asher (648-5611, kathryn.asher@unb.ca).

Companionships Flourish Along With Marigolds
Minister Announces Storytent Funding
By Megan James West Side P.A.C.T. teamed up with the Carleton Community Centre and St. Patrick’s School in order to plant hundreds of marigolds for residents of the West Side to enjoy. P.A.C.T. met with and helped children from all different grade levels plant the Pictured above left to right: Hope Durant, yellow marigolds at the Bailey Langille and Kayla McQuinn Carleton Community (Photo Courtesy of Krista Turnbull) Centre. After the initial chaos, due to excitement, subsided, P.A.C.T members were able to sit individually with many of the children and speak with them about their thoughts on the environment. Keeping our environment healthy and beautiful were among the top priorities on their list – and P.A.C.T. couldn’t agree more!
Cleanup Helpers Deserve A Cool Treat By Anne Driscoll Crescent Valley’s community cleanup was a great success this year with the weather cooperating and many community helpers out and about. The students from Hazen White - St. Francis School kicked off the cleanup with a hotdog lunch provided by the CV Community Tenants Association. The students and staff then headed into Crescent Valley armed with garbage bags and gloves to help residents clean up the neighbourhood. Thanks to ACAP, Department of Social Development, City of Saint John Leisure Services, AIDS SJ Needle Sweepers, HWSF staff, and Crescent Valley Resource Centre for their combined efforts to make the CV Cleanup another super community event.

TRC Beautification By Mel Barrett The Resource Centre for Youth is proud to share the new planters provided by the Waterloo Village Association! Taking pride in our community is important and so TRC and the Waterloo Village Association are working together to beautify our neighborhood. It is the responsibility of the TRC teens to water and weed the flowers as well as pick up trash along the property. With the teens invested in community projects and summer is in full swing here in the Village! The Resource Centre for youth has partnered with the Waterloo Village Association to beautify the neighborhood. Planters originally built by the youth, village volunteers and members of the Saint John Community Policing Program adorn Richmond street. Plants were provided by the city and TRC youth have volunteered to take care of the flowers for the summer. Youth at the centre love being involved with community and the hands on activity. And of course the greatest benefit is we get to enjoy bright beautiful flowers in our community all summer long! The flowers are in full bloom and bursting with colour so be sure to stop by and check it out!

Acadie en fête à Saint-Jean le 15 août
For Beautiful Canada Canada has a wonderful natural environment. There are lots of trees, lakes and clean air. When I came to Canada, I was amazed with those things and felt that Canada is a very blessed country. The more I live here; I think that there are some things that need to improve for the future environment. Recognize the importance of the environment and try to maintain it. In many ways we control this such as; collecting garbage separately, using public transportation and so on. I think that charging expensive fines for people who don’t follow the rules is also a good way. The more electricity we use, the more we pay. That makes us save energy and can help preserve our environment. Canada has a great environment right now but it needs to pay more attention to the future environment.
Par Rahma Kouraich Vous êtes invités à vous joindre à nous le 15 août pour participer à la Fête nationale de l’Acadie et au cortège du Tintamarre. C’est aussi l’occasion de célébrer avec vos amis notre histoire acadienne, notre culture et nos coutumes.

Des activités pour tous les âges : films, cuisine, chants, musique, danses, jeux, bricolages, maquillages, et déguisements, prix à gagner pour les meilleurs déguisements. Venez faire la fête en famille comme nous aimons la faire en Acadie. Appelez pour information: 506-642-4242 Joyful shouts of ‘’Vive l’Acadie’’ will echo through the streets on August 15th!

Do It Immediately
Air Environment By Hansuk Kim I want to talk about the air environment of Canada, as an immigrant. I come from Korea. My native country is polluted by rapid industrial development. There are many people in a small living space. Most Koreans reside in big apartment buildings. Before coming to Canada, I lived on the twentysecond floor of an apartment. Every day a lot of black dirt came into my home. I had to vacuum every day and then clean with a wet towel. If I didn’t do it, my feet would be black from the dirt on the floor. I’ve been living here almost seven months. I vacuum every day. However, I don’t need to regularly clean with a wet towel. I think Canada has less pollution compared to my native country. It is important to keep the environment clean. I expect hybrid cars will spread gradually. This may help with air pollution in Saint John.
Impact Of Learn And Go
By Suqing Li Human beings utilize the resources and enjoy their lives. As they do, there are some consequences for the environment. As we know, we should protect the earth from now on. Let’s do the following: First, when we go shopping, recycle bags are more welcome than new plastic bags. Secound, when we go outdoors, we can take a bus or carpool. According to a survey, taking a bus to work can save as much gasoline as 40 cars! Third, in summer time, our clothes can dry in sunlight, not in the dryer. In winter, do not turn the heat on too high. Anytime when you are the last to leave a room or go to bed, turn off the lights. We can create good things with constructive ideas. We can do small things with our lives that are good for the earth and good for the coming generations.
Past Learn And Go Champions
By Penni Eisenhauer In the fall of 2009, two of us attended Learn & Go and developed a project to improve accessibility to the Carleton Community Centre. The nearest bus stop to the centre was at the corner of Ludlow and Duke Street, which made accessibility difficult due to safety reasons such as poor street lighting, snow removal, and walking distance for persons with disabilities. A daily stop would provide accessibility to services and programs offered at the new Wellness Center, including the Food Bank and mother and tots program, and to volunteer opportunities at the Centre. Many people rely on the bus so services may not be utilized at the centre and resources could even be allocated to other areas. We had letters of support from residents, city officials, and community partners. With our mentor’s assistance we worked with Frank McCarey, General Manager, Saint John Transit, and within three months the bus route included a stop at the centre.
Small Projects Can Grow!

By Particia Porter In 2009 our Learn & Go project was to have fencing installed around two hydro towers near our neighbourhood playground. Our small team of four worked on the project together and with the support of Learn & Go, our mentor Barry Freeze, and working with our potential partner, Saint John Energy, the two hydro towers were safely fenced in. The success of our small project inspired a much bigger project: replacing our old playground with a new state-of-the-art playground. With the joining of community and partners our small group grew larger and our dream of a new playground became a reality. In Oct 2011 we celebrated the grand opening of a beautiful new Anglin Drive Playground with our community and partners! Page 15
East Side Motivators Kick Off Summer Street Dance

By Claire Ashton Larry Collins has been happy, even when pulling overnight shifts and putting in overtime because he feels lucky to be working “lots of hours for good pay with good people”. While the workload at Delta’s Banquet Services is quite different from his background in carpentry, he gained a lot of the skills he is now using while working on the Fuel the Brain Program at the Saint John Learning Exchange, where he honed his food preparation and service skills, and his easy-going ability to work well with others in high pressure situations. Larry first met his future employer at a Catch the Wave to Employment event, where in between serving coffee and busing tables, he introduced himself to the HR Manager and handed her his resume.
By Diane Clarke It was a great day! On Sat, July 14, residents of Roxbury Drive and Reading Crescent celebrated summer in the neighbourhood. The children were thrilled by visits from Mill Rats basketball player Anthony Anderson, who started up a lively soccer game, and Miss New Brunswick, Amy Thomas, who painted fingernails and let the girls try on her tiara. Ernie Fillmore from Forest Glen YMCA piped out the tunes while Helen Bridgeo from Leisure Services led over 30 kids in some funky dance moves. There was a reading tent set up by Glen View United Church, with summer student Emily Thompson engaging youth in reading and games, and handing out information on the summer reading program at the church.
Larry’s advice for someone starting on a new employment path: “When you’re in a new job, working with new products and tasks, don’t be shy to ask questions- just like with anything that is new to you.”
With close to 100 residents taking part in the barbeque and activities, it shows that this neighborhood knows how to have fun!
Crescent Valley Garden Celebrates 20 Years
Candy Mateo
By Staff of Saint John Learning Exchange Candy Mateo, a learner at the Saint John Learning Exchange, is an inspirational example of how showing up every day, working hard with a purpose and never giving up will result in success. She had passed four out of five GED exams, but the math exam seemed nearly unbeatable. Each time she returned to try again she’d say, “I’m going to work hard until I get this math.” And get it, she did! Our pride and the joy we feel with her are almost over-whelming because we know how hard she worked. We watched her shake off the disappointment, gather herself together and hit those math books again with a vengeance. Her determination and ability to stick to the task are an inspiration to us all.
Pictured above: Arial pictured of Crescent Valley Garden in 2011 (Photo Courtesy of CV Garden Commitee)) By Karen Rodgerson with Juanita Black In 1992, in a deserted back yard, between MacLaren Blvd, Taylor Ave. and Patterson St, the Crescent Valley Community Garden was born. Residents partnered with the Department of Social Development, who cleared the land and delivered several truckloads of topsoil. After that, the residents went to work and the rest is history! This year we have 19 families sharing 12 plots. For the next season we hope to expand our garden to allow more families the opportunity to grow their own fresh vegetables. The CV Garden will be having it 20 Anniversary celebration on Tuesday Aug14th. Our judge from Halifax Seed will be on hand to choose a 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place and 1 honourable mention, in this friendly competition. Members will be hosting a barbecue at that time.
