Want to do something special for someone this year?

Sponsorship of the SWM Hanging Flower Basket Program is a great way to give recognition to a special someone throughout the growing season.  When you sponsor a basket for $70.00, the name of the sponsor is shown beside the basket and you or the person you specify will receive an income tax receipt for the full support amount.
Contact the SWM Recreation Department at 519-287-2839 for further information.
