Following the meeting we’re having Scarborough Show and Tell. 

You are invited to share an item that says Scarborough to you. A photograph, souvenir, family keepsake, newspaper clipping, or mystery object. If it captures a memory or moment from our community, we’d love to see it!

Share the story behind your piece and discover the memories others hold dear.

One item.
One story.
A shared love of Scarborough.
