♻️ Curbside Exchange Days are back!

Starting Friday, September 11 at 5:00 PM, put your unwanted household items at the curb and mark them FREE for others to enjoy.

Take a stroll around the community, see what others are offering, and maybe find a treasure or two while giving usable items a second life.

The exchange runs through Sunday, September 13. Any items that haven't been picked up must be removed from the curb by 8:00 PM Sunday evening.

Let's keep good items out of the landfill and support a little neighbour-to-neighbour sharing. One person's clutter might be someone else's great find!

🌿 A Fresh Look for Markdale Cemetery 🌿

We're pleased to share the completion of recent improvements at Markdale Cemetery. As part of this work, fence posts were replaced and the fence has been fully repainted, helping to preserve and enhance this important community space.

Cemeteries are an important part of our community. They provide a place to remember loved ones while preserving the history of the families and residents who came before us. We take great pride in caring for our cemeteries and keeping them well maintained so families have a respectful place to visit loved ones, reflect, and honour our local heritage.

💡 Did You Know?

Together, these 24 cemeteries represent an important part of our community's history.
