abbycares
Consultation has concluded
All around Abbotsford, people are supporting one another and showing how they care. #abbycares is about getting through this time together. You can show how you care here, and share it with others.
The City will be sharing content here to help families stay active and engaged in their community, and to keep spirits high while we "Stay Together by Staying Apart" and inspire others.
Ideas for keeping spirits high:
- Download our coloring sheet and share your window art at #abbycares.
- Join in on the 7 PM SALUTE to our healthcare and frontline workers. Get out your cowbells, pots and pans and your best cheering voice. Share the video to #abbycares.
- Decorate your sidewalks and driveways with sidewalk chalk. Use inspiring messages, fun drawings and take a photo and share it with #abbycares.
- Check out our Community Events Calendar for some great live virtual entertainment from around the local community at abbotsford.ca.
- Checkout the Parks, Recreation & Culture Facebook page for activities to keep you active and little ones entertained.
We are all in this together!
