Connie Langille
Connie Langille
President; Chair, Placemaking Committee
Connie has lived in the Church Wellesley neighbourhood for almost 30 years and is proud to have raised her family in this vibrant community. Her interest in community advocacy was ignited when development threatened the historic buildings at Church and Gloucester. The push-back from local residents resulted in the proposal being withdrawn. As Chair of the Placemaking Committee she believes the CWNA should address issues relevant to the whole of our diverse community, with the intention of creating public spaces that promote people's health, happiness, and well being.

Paul Farrelly
Chair, Heritage Committee
Paul helped found the association after working with the adjacent Bay Cloverhill Community Association, with whom the CWNA shares a kilometer of long-neglected Yonge Street. Paul has been engaged in a variety of heritage campaigns and socio-cultural enterprises over the years. He is enthusiastic about the abundance of cultural and heritage assets on Jarvis, Church and Yonge Street. Paul hopes to extend our vibrant culture of engagement to the merchants on Yonge Street.

Trevor Hennig
Secretary; Chair, Communications Committee
Trevor grew up on a farm in Southern Saskatchewan. Having lived in progressively larger centres -- Toronto for the past 30 years -- he has come to believe in the vital importance that parks, gardens and open spaces play in dense urban environments. Trevor contributes to the CWNA by applying information management skills to an enriched and regularly updated website, and by working with the Placemaking team to bring local greening projects to fruition.
