Small taste of spring
90th Birthday
A friend to so many at Islington 2000, Josie turned 90 last Friday. Over many years, she has enthusiastically helped organize our social events, and in turn everyone turned out to organize a party for her.
Enjoy some photos from the big evening.
Our lobby furniture has arrived
Since the Toronto Fire Marshall banished our lobby furniture to the Recreation Centre we’ve been awaiting the replacement furniture. This past Friday the new furniture was delivered and here it is.

Window Renovation Preparation
Islington 2010 will begin a window replacement project this fall. You will need to prepare for the construction but not right away. Wait and you will be informed when to start preparations.
How to Prepare
It goes without saying that you need to remove all window coverings, and the hardware too if possible. Those with stippled ceilings should use caution especially if it seems crumbly. If in doubt, leave it for the abatement experts.
Move furniture away from the window areas in the livingroom, den, and bedrooms – 4 to 5 feet if possible, and protect everything with dustcovers. It may be wise to remove wall art or cover it to protect from wind and dust.
Livingroom
Remove window coverings, clear space and cover furnishings
Bay window in den
Clear space for workers and cover furnishings
Bed
Cover bedding to protect from dust
Master Bedroom
Leave room inside for workers – clear space on the balcony too
Wall art
Wind may knock pictures off the wall – be prepared
Preparations by the Construction Team
The contractors will also prepare the site to avoid any damage or excess dust. They will use drop cloths, dust barriers, and floor protection.
Common area hallways
Our hallways will be protected during construction

Directors’ BBQ for 2010 Islington
After a blustery and dark day, the sun broke through and gave us a perfect evening for our barbecue. As you see, we enjoyed every minute. A sincere thank you to the social committee!
