We Are Not Amused!
Victoria Day Garden Party and Paint-In

When: Victoria Day – Monday May 24, 1-3 pm
(followed by ales fit for royalty at Tidewaters Pub, 3-5 pm)

Where: 10300 block River Road, Delta; near River Road & Centre Street. (Take the 640 bus: 10 minutes from Scott Road Skytrain or 15 from Ladner Exchange).

What: Historic homes are being demolished on the Fraser River bank, to make room for the proposed South Fraser Perimeter Road (SFPR) freeway project. Join us for a Victoria Day garden party and refreshments while you paint your displeasure with the SFPR on large banners!

Who: The Sunbury Neighbourhood Association and friends

Why: To express our royal displeasure with Gordon Campbell’s petulant scheme to pave over this historic landscape instead of preserving it as a Historic Waterfront Park or other suitable use.

Bring: Friends, family, painting clothes, freeway-busting ideas, slogans, cartoons, or whatever you fancy! Painting supplies and banners provided or bring your own plus a re-useable cup for this earth friendly event. Groups opposed to the SFPR are welcome to bring a display table.

Optional: Cucumber sandwiches, croquet and fine bone china.

Homes Not Highways! Parks Not Freeways! People Not Pavement!
