2025 CARNIVAL WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!
This year’s Carnival happened on Saturday, September 13th from 11-2pm at 150 O’Carroll Avenue in Peterborough.
What a Day at Dixon Park! 🌞🎉
With over 150 wonderful humans joining us, Dixon Park was bursting with joy, laughter, and all-around good vibes! From giggles on the grass to tasty treats and exciting activities, the spirit of connection and shared experience was alive in every corner. We hope you left with full hearts (and maybe full bellies too)!
A massive shoutout to everyone who made this day magical — our generous sponsors, the amazing families and individuals who came out and supported the raffle, our incredible community partners who gave their time, and of course, the rockstar Canopy Staff who helped bring it all together. You’re the reason this event felt like a big warm hug from the community.
Thanks to your support, we raised over $5,000 for the Canopy Cares Support Fund — helping us ensure equitable access to opportunities that empower and uplift the individuals and families we serve. 💚
Here’s to more moments of joy, togetherness, and community magic. We can’t wait to do it again!
