Community Block Party Trailer a Huge Success!
The Town of High River
June 10, 2021
Good morning ladies,
I wanted to send a quick email to express my appreciation for the help you have provided and to showcase the generosity of Scott Builders. As you know, we were the grateful recipients of a trailer Scott Builders donated some years ago that we have been using to encourage and enhance Block Parties throughout High River. The trailer came at a much needed time and has been used to create lasting connections while building a sense of community.
We have recently had the opportunity to provide the trailer with a bit of a face lift. We are so excited to share with you the finished product, which we couldn’t be happier with.
On behalf of Family and Community Support Services, thank you again for your kindness, generosity and support for High River.
All the best,
Janelle Kennedy
Community Development Coach, Town of High River
Background:
Shortly after the 2013 flood in Southern Alberta, SBI created a Flood (Team) Committee who reached out to the Town of High River to see what they could do to help out. It was decided that SBI would donate a Trailer for the Town to use at Community Events. It included a BBQ and sporting equipment such as basketball net and balls; baseball gloves, bat and balls plus skipping ropes, sumo wrestling outfits, frisbees, sidewalk chalk, giant beach ball, coolers and tables.
In 2021, the trailer needed a facelift and the Town graciously included the SBI logo on the back of the unit.
Thank you Town of High River! We are so excited to hear it has been a benefit to your community.
