Park Reopening Ceremony Today

This rolled into my inbox:
"Councillor Adam Vaughan and the City of Toronto invite you to celebrate the re-opening of:
Gwendolyn MacEwen Park
Date: Wednesday July 21st
Time: 12:00pm
Location: Gwendolyn MacEwen Park (Walmer Road Circle, Lowther Avenue and Walmer Road)
Join us to celebrate the recently redesigned Gwendolyn MacEwen Park, a unique community green space in the heart of the Annex. This small neighbourhood park has been both beautified and enlarged by reclaiming a portion of the road that surrounds it. Hear from local residents who contributed to the redesign of the park and learn more about the park's namesake, the late Gwendolyn MacEwen.
In honour of the renowned poet after which the park was named in 1996, local novelist and playwright Claudia Dey will read one of Gwendolyn MacEwen's poems. Claudia wrote a play about the life of Gwendolyn MacEwen, The Gwendolyn Poems, which was nominated for the 2002 Governor General's Award and the Trillium Book Award.
Please rsvp to councillor_vaughan@toronto.ca or by calling 416.392.4044."
Sorry for the short notice!
Vanessa
