Photos from our Walk Across Canada

On Saturday July 16th members of the Riverwalk family took part in the Walk Across Canada to raise awareness about eating disorders. The Walk was started in honour of a young woman named Renata, who died due to complications resulting from her eating disorder. On this day, people walk across Canada to remember Renata and the struggle of people living with eating disorders, and to offer support, solidarity, and reduce stigma.

Highland Nest Art by Artist Catherine Faiello

Former art student, Catherine Faiello, enlisted the help of some neighbourhood children to collect fallen branches, sticks and twigs from one of the forested areas on the property. Once collected, she began to create a natural art installation that would catch the eye of those passing by and make them think about the wildlife that lives on the property.

The nest she created sits off the ground, supported by a fallen branch and resembles a nest about five feet in diameter.
