The community of Dogpatch, north of Lively is about to get re-branded with the new name Little Creighton.

Tomorrow afternoon at Meatbird Lake Park, Mayor Brian Bigger will proclaim the new name, after every single resident in the tiny hamlet signed a petition.

Ward 2 Councillor Michael Vagnini says the area has rich history but the name is unpopular with those who live there.

Vagnini says community spirit is growing as the 52-home neighbourhood continues to revitalize and renew Little Creighton, which was also called Rockville.
