Community Garage Sale – Saturday, June 17th from 8 am!
Go through closets, cupboards and drawers with the thought “if we were moving what would we NOT take with us?” and sell off yesterday’s treasures.
Pricing your items gives folks a start point to haggle, however be warned that if your prices are too high people will be turned off. Experience is not to bother pricing all items, just some of the bigger ones for which you want a reasonable price.

2017 will be a busy year with two items of note. The City will be holding an information session in the new year with its preferred option for alleviating traffic congestion at Sarnia and Western. We will let you know the date and time of that meeting.
The City will also be starting up the second phase of the Master Plan for the part of the Medway Valley Environmentally Significant Area from Fanshawe Park Road down to our neighbourhood. It should be interesting. Stay tuned for details.
Speaking of the Medway, you may have noticed damage and vandalism to signs in the Valley. If you do notice anything suspicious, please contact police. Official trails are marked with yellow “blazes” on posts and trees. Please stay on marked trails and respect the closed trail signs. The marked trails avoid sensitive features and plants and areas where erosion has made walking hazardous.
