We're celebrating our anniversary! Thirteen years ago this week, the Hastings North Business Improvement Association was formed as a reincarnation of the Hastings Chamber of Commerce. We're incredibly proud of the work we've done in the past 13 years, from murals, public art installations, graffiti and street clean-ups, curb greening, our first community bike racks, and more. We're proud of our partnership with the Hastings Sunrise Community Policing Centre, which delivers our business safety programs, and co-hosts our community events, like the annual Sunrise Summer Kickoff. Most of all, we're proud to be part of your community. Thank you for 13 wonderful years in the Hastings-Sunrise and Grandview-Woodland neighbourhoods!
