Peterborough On Board
Homegrown Homes is marketing a dynamic and unique real-estate game based on actual Peterborough landmarks. All proceeds from this fundraising initiative will help build more small-scale affordable housing units in the city.
We would like to thank the following local businesses for selling our Peterborough On Board Games during this 2011 Christmas Season...

Thank you so much for your support! The proceeds from these games will help provide affordable housing for low income families in Peterborough.

Our Signature Series and Original Series are now at a special price.
This is your opportunity to own a special edition game, endorsed by well-known personalities in sports, music and the arts. We put out a call to our friends to help us raise funds for affordable housing by lending their names to the cause, and they responded.
Signed games are available at selected locations, or by contacting the Homegrown Homes office.
Games in our Sports VIP series as well as our Original series are still available.
As this was a limited production run, this could be your only opportunity to secure your very own 'Peterborough On Board' Real Estate board game for your own family, or as a gift. All games have been attractively priced for the budget-concious consumer.
All games in the series have been further reduced to now $9.99 (excluding tax). The special pricing includes our sought-after Signature Series games. These made-in-Peterborough board games, fashioned and inspired by a favourite heritage board game, make great gifts for the whole family. They are also educational, and all about the Peterborough region. A must-have for collectors! They make unique souvenirs, fun for the cottage for campsite and a keepsake for a far-off friend or family member with ties to Peterborough.
There are limited quantities, and akin to a precious collector's plate when they are gone, they're gone. No more of these unique games will ever be produced.
Peterborough On Board Games are now available at Chapter's on Lansdowne at the foot of Goodfellow, as well as Kawartha Tourism on Crawford Drive at the Parkway north of the Peterborough Bypass, and The Petes Store located at the Peterborough Memorial Center.

Keep in mind that when you leave the store with a Peterborough On Board board game tucked under your arm, you are supporting affordable housing in our community, and specifically our brand-new fourplex on Edinburgh!
This wonderful, new and green project incorporates the latest in energy-saving technology and other efficiencies, which further contributes to the affordability of our building. Four families will soon be housed in this distinctive, and tastefully-appointed building. When you buy a Peterborough On Board board game, ALL proceeds will be directed to affordable housing, and the Edinburgh Street project.
Peterborough On Board makes a great gift for any current, or former Peterborough resident. Landmarks on the game board include the YMCA, General Electric, Pepsi-QTG, Lansdowne Place and several other well-known members of the local business community, and the City overall. Ever feel the urge to buy your own TV station? For that matter, buy up the entire county! Now you can be the mogul you always knew you could be...
And remember, there are no more of these games to be produced. When they're gone, they're gone...
