Blind Enthusiasm Excites Us Too!!!
Some of you may have seen an article about a topic near and dear to our hearts...BEER. Onbeer.org published this little gem that references Ritchie's future brewpub as well as some of the plans for quenching our thirst - like 12 to 13 varieties of beer, along with a couple of guest taps!!!
If you want to check out the article, it explains Greg Zeschuk's latest exciting venture in detail and even features a nice concept drawing of the brewpub, which many of you have probably been watching take shape at the Four Corners.

We are looking for feedback on Ritchie's Yoga program!
Please follow this link and fill out our short survey to help us determine if the program could benefit from changes. We are looking at a few things like the possibility of providing on-site child care during some of our programs. We would love to hear your thoughts on this so thanks in advance for taking a moment to complete the survey.
Our Community
Named after the original owner of the Ritchie Mill and former mayor of the City of Strathcona, our community is home to more than 4100 people.
Over time, the neighbourhood has continued to evolve. We have an eclectic mix of distinct wartime houses, vintage bungalows, and contemporary new builds.
As Edmonton has grown, the benefits of centrally located Ritchie have become clear. Ours is a much sought after, mature community that is exceptionally young at heart.
Community Day Success!
Thanks to everyone who joined us for Community League Day on September 17! Despite a rainy start, we had a fantastic day. Pancakes, classic cars, food trucks, bouncy castle and crafty car creations like this one below - we couldn't really ask for more!
