Hi Neighbour

A Connected Community

Come out and get to know your neighbours this summer! 

Creating connected and vibrant neighbourhoods is a key priority for the City. One of the best ways for us to be engaged and healthy is to get together to celebrate our community and meet our neighbours. These connections help promote neighbourhood safety, build a sense of community and belonging and are a ton of fun. 

The City is presenting a series of events under the umbrella called Hi Neighbour.

Whether it's at one of the new Rock the Block events, the Hot Summer Night gatherings hosted by the Maple Ridge Fire Department, Movies in the Park or the many concerts and community celebrations this summer, the summer of 2024 is packed with free family friendly events to help you connect with your community.
