Trick or Eat
🎃🕸️✨Spooky season magic at its finest! A HUGE shoutout to the GCVI crew for making their first-ever Trick or Eat event a smashing success! They collected 747 pounds of food and $150 in donations for the Guelph Food Bank! 🥳🛒 That’s some serious kindness & community spirit in action. Who knew candy and compassion could go hand-in-hand? 🍬💖
EPNG’s First Lantern Parade

Fairy Door Map
Hey Ex-Park! We are thrilled to unveil E.P.N.G.'s magical Fairy Door Neighborhood Map!✨
This community project wouldn't have been possible without the boundless enthusiasm and community spirit that each of you has shown.
Thank you for bringing your creativity and imagination to life, crafting enchanting fairy doors that have turned our neighborhood into a whimsical wonderland. Your participation has not only added a touch of magic to our community but also brought us all closer together.
To our fairy architects, artists, and dreamers, your contributions have been truly inspiring. We invite everyone to explore the map, discover new doors, and maybe even spot a fairy or two! Keep sharing your delightful creations and let’s continue to build our magical community, one fairy door at a time.
Thank you for making our neighborhood a little more magical!
With love and gratitude,
Your EPNG✨

EPNG Park Clean & Mend in the Park
A big thank you to all of the intrepid souls who braved the snow (!) to come to our #cleanandgreen EPNG Park Clean Up and Mend in the Park today! We made new friends, helped out Mother Earth, got some mending done, and listened to a little Tortured Poets Dept ;) Well done, Ex-Park!
Looking for NATIVE SEEDS!
In partnership with @the_artofsoil_collective we have a BEAUTIFUL garden that needs some love! We are collecting seeds and seedlings to get us started. Please reach out if you can share🌱
Seeking Art Supplies
EPNG is seeking your art supplies for Enchanted Park! Drop off your acrylic paint, wood glue, paint brushes, and any fairy garden accessories or decor you can spare. Let's spruce up the park together and clean out our craft drawers at the same time ;)
Enchanted Book Nook
Guess what, Ex-Park? Enchanted Park is hosting a Free Book Table just for the grown-ups!
Bring along your cherished books, those tales that have whisked you away on countless adventures, and join us in spreading the joy of reading. Share the magic with fellow book enthusiasts and discover new realms within the pages of exchanged stories.
So dust off those beloved books from your shelves, wrap them in a bit of enchantment, and come along to swap them for new treasures. After all, what better way to celebrate the magic of storytelling than by sharing it with others?
We can't wait to see you there, surrounded by books and brimming with enchantment!
Any remaining books will be donated after the event to our community partners.
