What makes a successful community? A centre.
The centre might be a meeting place, a place for education, a place for collective effort, a place for growth, a platform for sustainable development, a crossover point to connect members of the community together, a place to share solutions and create great things.
It might also be all these things — and more!
The Ville aims to be a centre for a community of positive change, a place “to ensure that people experience what it means to be responsible, successful members of a community”. They’re transforming an old Elementary school in Marysville into this wonderful centre. Jeff MacFarlane joins host Chris Waddell with guest host Tim Rayne to talk about the exciting prospect of The Ville, the closing days of the Kickstarter for The Ville (3 days left!). Check them out on Facebook for upcoming events and information, or on their website.
Get involved in helping your community get a great centre off the ground!
