    Peel Children’s Water Festival

    Over 5,200 Grade 2 to 5 students had the opportunity to learn about the importance of water in everyday life through over 50 hands-on, water-related activities. Some students practised techniques used to clean up the environment after an oil spill while others were "fluoridized" as water drops flowing through the water treatment process. There were over 500 volunteers at the week-long event, including many Regional employees who took time out of their busy schedules to make the Festival a success.

Attendees celebrated with colleagues and friends, and received commemorative pins, gifts and awards for their outstanding contributions and achievements.

       

    2002 United Way Employee Campaign Kick-Off

    Joan Rivers, a stretch limo, and rock stars such as Paul Stanley could only mean one thing – the 2002 United Way Employee Campaign kick-off. A debut performance by the Tragically Un-Hip, a “band” featuring members of the Executive Management Team, launched the campaign with a rendition of the Beatles song “Come Together.” From United Way committee members to enthusiastic fans eager to get a glimpse of the latest rock sensation, Region of Peel employees really came together to make this event unforgettable.

       

    Children’s Christmas Party

    When you think of Christmas it’s hard not to think of children. The sound of children laughing was certainly present at the Region’s Annual Children’s Christmas Party, held at the Brampton Fair Grounds on Dec. 1. Games, gifts, scrumptious treats and most importantly a visit by Santa Claus were all part of the fun-filled afternoon.

       

    Family Picnic

    Approximately 250 Regional employees and their families did not let temperamental weather conditions stand in the way of a good time at Peel’s Family Picnic, held at Heart Lake Conservation in Brampton on June 15. A range of activities for all ages, including fencing demonstrations, face painting, air castles, a children's play area and relay games kept the young and young-at-heart busy between the intermittent raindrops. Even the Regional mascots from Public Works and Health managed to stay dry!
