Communications Committee
The communications committee helps neighbors stay informed, connected, and involved. From posters around town to updates on our website and social media, we make sure everyone knows what’s happening—and how to be part of it.
Connect more neighbors
Our neighborhood is full of great people—but they can’t get involved if they don’t know what’s going on. You’ll help spread the word in simple, friendly ways that make everyone feel welcome.
Keep the community informed
Whether it’s a last-minute update or a big upcoming event, clear communication makes everything run more smoothly. You’ll help share timely info through posters, emails, and posts—and build trust along the way.
Shine a light on what’s happening
There’s so much good happening in Maple Leaf—events, projects, volunteer efforts—but not everyone hears about it. You’ll help get those stories and updates out into the neighborhood, so more people can join in.
