Community Living – North Frontenac (CL-NF) celebrated its 40th anniversary at its Annual General Meeting on August 30 at St. James Major Church hall. Chris Beesley, executive director of Community Living Ontario, was the invited guest. He presented Dean Walsh, CL-NF executive director, with a certificate to help celebrate the organization’s 40 years of excellent service in the community. Walsh spoke very proudly of the board’s progressive, forward-thinking decisions. He also said that the agency is looking at a property south of Sharbot Lake, the former home of Drapeau Emergency Services, as a possible new location for an expanded Treasure Trunk. Community Living currently operates the Treasure Trunk in a rented property at the foot of Cannon Road in Sharbot Lake.
Paddy O’Connor was welcomed as a new board member.
(Note - A previous version of this article said the following in place of the third and second to last sentences: "One example is the organization’s recent purchase of the Drapeau building south of Sharbot Lake on Road 39, which will be the new location of the Treasure Trunk" but representatives from Community Living called to provide clarification.)
