Fall Updates from Middlesex Centre As the leaves turn and the air gets crisp, we’ve got a few seasonal updates to share! Free Skating Thanks to Local Support Thanks to the incredible support of local businesses and organizations, we’re pleased to offer free public skating on weekends and select holidays throughout fall and winter. It’s a great way to stay active and connect with neighbours. Check out the full schedule at middlesexcentre.ca/skating and follow us on social media for weekly updates. Winter Road Prep: What You Need to Know Our crews are already prepping snowplows and getting ready for winter road maintenance. Here’s how you can help: • No Overnight Parking – From Labour Day to Victoria Day, parking is not permitted on municipal roads between 2 am and 7 am. This helps ensure safe and efficient snow clearing. • Bring in Nets & Check Mailboxes – Don’t forget to bring your basketball and hockey nets in from the edge of the road and out of the way of snowplows. If you are on a rural road, check that your mailbox is securely attached and solidly in the ground. Funding Available for Community Projects Got a great idea to boost community wellbeing? Apply for a Council Grant! Non-profit community groups can receive up to $5,000 for initiatives in tourism, arts, culture, heritage, sustainability and more. Applications are open until November 30, 2025. Learn more at middlesexcentre.ca/council-grants.
Help Us Test for Lead in Drinking Water We’re looking for volunteers to participate in our routine lead sampling program. It’s a quick, five-minute test conducted by a licensed operator, and you’ll receive the results for your home. If you’re interested, contact Public Works with your address to schedule a visit. Homes and businesses can volunteer more than once! EnviroDepots Close November 22 Doing your fall yard clean-up?
