MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
On behalf of the Friends’ Executive, I hope you have had a wonderful summer and are now looking forward to the fall. We have been busy with a number of events and are looking forward to more in the coming months.

Our volunteers are creating an online store featuring a wide range of items that have been set aside. Read more in our newsletter.
Speaking with Friends
On Saturday, June 13, a large crowd gathered to celebrate the publication of the second edition of London Street Names. The new edition includes 30 additional stories about how London’s highways and byways received their names.
Thank you for your continued support as a Friend. If you know someone who would like to become a member, they can learn about the many benefits inside. I also extend my sincere thanks to our volunteers for generously giving their time and talents, and to the Friends’ Executive for their dedication and commitment.
Thank you again for your continuing support.

Carmen Sprovieri, President
