From The Heatley Block Preservation Society:

"I am sending you this invitation to come out and show your support for the saving of the Heatley Block and locating the new East End library in the 1921 building of Strathcona School at the Vancouver Public Library board meeting this wednesday August 27th at 5:30 pm.
The meeting will be held in the Alma Van Dusen & Peter Kay rooms on the Lower Level of the Vancouver Public Library's Central Branch at 350 West Georgia Street. Speakers will be Claudine Michaud (HBPS), Rick Archambault (SRA/SRC), Kieren Beattie (HBPS), and Mr. Lee from SPOTA.
Those of you who have ordered t-shirts, they should be available sometime this week. We will be in contact about how to pay and where they can be picked up, etc.
Also, there was a great article on the Heatley Block in last week's Globe & Mail. Here is the link:
Hope to see as many of you as possible on Wednesday. Again, thanks for your ongoing support."
