The first opportunity for the public to see the new digs of the Treasure Trunk took place last Friday at a Wine and Cheese Fund raiser and silent auction at their new home on Road 38, south of the Kingdom Hall.
Community Living Board Chair Patty Hallgren looked at the over flow crowd and said “who says people won’t come out to the Treasure Trunk because we are out of town.”
Paddy O’Connor provided a rousing opening for Mayor Frances Smith, who used an oversized pair of scissors that she borrowed from Frontenac Paramedic Services to cut the ribbon, and the space had been christened.
Community Living North Frontenac operates the Treasure Trunk but its Executive Director Dean Walsh said that the Treasure Trunk “does not belong to Community Living, it belongs to the community, it belongs to everyone.”
The Treasure Trunk will be open for business on Saturday morning (December 3) at 9 am.
