It is with a heavy heart that we have decided to cancel the Loop - Family Resource Expo. We will attempt to reschedule - however it is hard to see what that might look like right now. We want to thank all the amazing community partners. The City of Stratford & Optimist Club of Stratford. All of the awesome organizations who agreed to participate. The small businesses that had committed to creating our market. The performers who were going to dazzle us with their incredible talents. The small army of eager volunteers who had already signed up to help and showcase why Stratford is a stellar place to live, work and play. Your safety and security is of the upmost importance to us at this time. Please practice social distancing and quarantine if you can. Lets #plankthecurve

Connect with neighbours and community through Huron - Perth Covid 19 Resource Group - Help is Close to Home let someone know you can help them, or ask for help yourself. Share or discover what is open and what is closed.
