Chyme Cummings and Leianne Gunter of DGS Construction say neighbours have been generous

A pair of flaggers featured in a recent edition of the Cloverdale Reporter (“School Work,” Feb. 10), want to thank the community for gifts of hot coffee and other welcome treats as they put in long hours at the North Clayton Secondary School project on 184 Street and 73 Avenue.

“We just want to say thank you for honking and saying hi,” Chyme Cummings said, contacting the local paper last week to express her gratitude to the friendly motorists and neighbours for their patience and generosity.

She and colleague Leianne Gunter have even received flowers – a welcome gift from a home based business on the street, Feel Good Flowers, which sells fresh bouquets.

Friendly motorists honk and wave, boosting their spirits. “They’re just so nice,” Cummings said.

Work at the site of the 1,500-seat, $55 million school began in January and is expected to last to 2018.
