Today, I joined councillors, staff and the Halton Suicide Prevention Coalition to unveil the Garden of Hope, a space for connection, reflection, and healing. Thank you to our Halton Hills Library for hosting - and for taking these pictures.

Yesterday, as part of the 100 Men Who Care Halton Hills, I joined this cheque presentation for the Ironwood Project - a great local organization that supports the adult survivors of child sexual abuse and works to prevent the future abuse of children.

Congrats to Head for the Hills on their 10th year! I saw Aaron Boyd there and we got this photo in front of the “balloon beer”. The festival is put on by a volunteer board run by five local service clubs. I’ll miss them next year but I look forward to their return in 2027.

I got to judge brownies at the Acton Fair for my second year. Similar to last year, it was tough to decide. They were all very good.

Today, I reprised my role as MC of the Acton Fair’s Baby Show. Thanks to Linda Olson for organizing once again for the judges, volunteers and families that make it such a fun event year over year.

Congratulations to the Glen on a fantastic Bicentennial Fair! Maeve and I ran into Councillor Matt Kindbom at the gate, sporting a very fashionable top hat. Happy to see representation from the Sandhill Pipes and Drums, a Great War Flying Museum Flypast and many other activities.

Attending the Halton Hills’ Interfaith Community’s “Decades” Interfaith Dialogue event today. A good reminder that there is more that unites us than divides us.

I was part of the Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) Tree Planting at Tanners Drive Park that took place next to the Town’s Ward 1 Social this past weekend. Though I spent more time at the Social, I did have the opportunity to plant a shrub. Thanks to the organizers for this event!

Congrats to Scott Brooks and Vintage Acton for completing the Acton 200th Time Capsule and holding an internment today. It was cool looking at all the artifacts that are being buried. It will be incredible to look back at them in 25 years time. Great work. Scott Brooks
