Credit Valley Conservation unveiled VAB art signs earlier today
Credit Valley Conservation unveiled its Floating Island Project just hours ago, at Botavia Downs Park (Botavia Downs Road and Chinguacousy Road).
The Environmental Enhancement Demonstration Site is a partnership between the CVC and the City of Brampton, in partnership with Queens University, Trent University, C&M Athletics, Greenland Consulting Engineers and Fletcher's Meadow Secondary School. The art project created works for the park, and was a partnership between the CVC, the City, and Visual Arts Brampton.
In this photo are Councillor John Hutton, Francesca Riopka, Councillor John Sanderson, Keshav Ramola, Mayor Susan Fennell, Lynn Calliste and Nick Woollard (parents of Makini Calliste-Woollard, in Quebec at university), and VAB president Keith Moreau.
We're currently having a few difficulties uploading the video, but expect an upload or two of the happenings in the next few days.

First Brampton Wing Fest a success
Yesterday, the first annual Brampton Wing Fest was held at Chinguacousy Park's special events field. There was a strong turnout at the event, for the food, music, and competitions. Already, organizers were busy talking about plans for next year's event, before the night was even through.
Visual Arts Brampton member Ryan C. Thompson, who designed the event's logo, was on hand at the Visual Arts Brampton booth all day drawing caricatures for a nominal fee. Member Luis Barrios also helped man the tent.
We're looking forward to next year's event!
