Campaign Newsletter - Final Edition October 13, 2013

Here is the last of the Journey to the Promise Land Campaign Newsletters.

The Caleb Report will continue to be produced to provide updates on the building process.

This week a meeting with our architect, Henry Swinkels and builder, Lawson Gay went very well as the details of the proposed plans and budget were reviewed with the Project Team.  We expect to soon submit our application to the Town of Clarington to amend our Site Plan.  Final drawings should be done by the end of January and application for building permits shortly thereafter.  Then we await the spring time when we can begin to build.

Click below to access the latest update on the Campaign for which we are very thankful.
