“You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.” Winnie-the-Pooh
| At Land Ark Homes, we are bringing new possibilities to life in a historic Rideau Canal Waterway village. A village feels like home when people have caring connections built between neighbours. In Westport, we are fortunate to be surrounded by extraordinary local groups whose dedicated effort and spirit shape our vibrant community. It comes at a cost. The valuable volunteer spirit is alive and well in Westport, and we are thankful to see that legacy grow. Organizations across our village showcase what it means to show up for one another every day. Here are a few…. The Westport Lions Club: A pillar of local service since 1946, known not only for maintaining the beloved Lions Club Beach but also operate their invaluable mobility van program, ensuring any resident has safe, reliable transportation to healthcare and essential appointments. You can find out more about the Lions Club. The Westport Legion: A timeless gathering place that honors our history, brings people together for local events, and fosters a deep sense of connection. The Legion calendar is here. Westport Blooms: The passionate group of volunteers whose green thumbs and tireless dedication keep our streets, gardens, and shared spaces beautiful and flourishing year after year. The Westport Arts Council, Friends of the Westport Library, Friends of the Arena…and more. Building a true community of caring is about nurturing bonds of friendship and support. Living in a place like Westport gives us all the opportunity to step in, extend a hand, and create something meaningful together. What will you give to build a great community? We would love to hear from you. |
