Upcoming Events around Downtown!
Posted: May 7, 10:34 AMWhat’s New
Edith Street Parking Lot is Officially Open! The official opening for this parking lot by the Mayor of Halton Hills was on Wednesday June 29th, 2011. This parking lot is located at the intersection of Edith Street and Mill Street. There are a total of 67 new parking spaces that are only one and a half (1½) blocks away from Main Street. This parking lot was designed to be environmentally sustainable.
“The Edith Street Parking Lot incorporates many environmental attributes such as on site storm water runoff for quality and quantity control, LED lighting and electrical plug in capacity for the future generation of electrical vehicles. Community sponsored events requiring ease of electrical power access will also benefit” said Mayor Bonnette.
We are encouraging our business members to use this parking lot for long-term parking, however everyone is invited to use it! It is a beautiful new lot and we hope that all will take the initiative to “Walk the Block!”

Center Stage wins an award!
Posted: May 31, 01:42 PMTuesday May 24, 2011
BEYOND THE STAGE (the charitable division of local dance school Center Stage School of the Arts) was awarded with the 2011 Municipal Achievement Award for their contribution to bridging the gap between “the haves and the have nots” with the goal of bringing an end to child poverty in Canada. Annually the dancers, teachers, and volunteers of BEYOND THE STAGE participate in an athletic and literacy program once a week with students up to grade 8 to encourage them to set goals for success. Last year over $14,000 was raised and we want to celebrate and thank all those who have contributed in making a difference.
Congratulations to Center Stage for this wonderful achievement!
