Community Garage Sale Registration

It’s time to do some spring cleaning!

Everyone is invited to participate in our community garage sale on June 3 from 9am to 1pm.

If you have items you’d like to sell instead of throwing away, set them up in your front yard and join your neighbors on June 3.

(Our Community Association is advertising this event).

(Registration for this event is now closed.)

(If you would like to donate your unsold items to Big Brothers Big Sisters charity after the garage sale, please click on the box in the registration form and we will arrange to collect your items).

Thank you, neighbours – and happy holidays!

On December 18th, La Croisée neighbours gathered donations to the Christmas Sharing Store for the Aylmer Food Centre.
Neighbours donated over 890kgs (almost a ton) of food and supplies to the store.
The extraordinary spirit and generosity of the La Croisée community was gratefully received once again by the Aylmer Food Centre.

A message from the Aylmer Food Bank….

“La Croisée Community Association

On behalf of the Board of Directors, the employees, and the volunteers, we want to thank you for your donation of 892 kilos of foodstuffs and 90 $ in cash.
Your donation with those of many others helps make a difference in the daily lives of families at risk that benefit from the services of the Aylmer Food Centre.
There is no doubt that your generosity ensures the survival of the Centre.
To learn more about our organization, you can consult our Website at en.centrealimentaireaylmer.org.
Again, thank you.”

Supporting Christmas Sharing

On Sunday, December 12th, young volunteers helped collect a truck full of food and other essential items that all of you, members of the La Croisée Community Association, donated to the Aylmer Food Centre’s annual “Christmas Sharing Store”.

The Aylmer Food Centre is very grateful and thanks us on behalf of all those who are less fortunate.

Thank you all!

Wishing you very happy holidays!

Autumn Gathering
The weather was perfect and the corn, picked fresh in the morning, was enjoyed by everyone at our Community Corn Roast and Annual General Meeting, on September 21st. It was estimated over a hundred neighbours attended.

This annual community gathering is where we also discuss news, updates from our La Croisée community “non-profit” association. However, most of the time is spent in open discussion, the sharing of concerns, ideas and possibilities for the community.
