We would like to sponsor three block parties!
The Knottwood Community League would like to sponsor three block parties (one neighbourhood in each community: Ekota, Menisa and Satoo). $300 per block party will go towards planning your event.
To submit a request for sponsorship for your block party, put together a planning team (2-3 neighbours) and contact our Neighbourhood Watch Director at neighbourhoodwatch@
Note: all requests will be reviewed and approved on a first come first serve basis.
Questions? Email neighbourhoodwatch@knottwoodcommunity.ca
