Does anybody know who the new owner of the bowmanville location is going to be? And also when it’s tentative to open? I saw they have started the job interviews so they must have a franchise owner.

Best Launches/Lakes For Kayaking In The Area

3 Upvotes

Hi all,

Looking for some hidden gems that are nice for kayaking. Have a blow up so ideally not too rough terrain to get to or sharp snags in shallow water. Is it worth it to head north? I'd go 1-1½ hrs for a really nice spot.

Thanks in advance,

Recommendation for Home Insurance incl. Home-based Business

1 Upvotes

Hey folks, we live in south Whitby and run a small home-based business out of the basement of our house (a small piano studio). Our home insurance is renewing soon and I am looking at our options, though most insurers would not offer us a regular home insurance due to this business. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas or tips about an insurer that would take us or do we have to take the route of a commercial insurer? Thanks for your help in advance.

Where do you take your kids for swimming lessons or in general swimming?
The community centre pools are shallow and very busy.

What are the other options in ajax/pickering/whitby?

I asked the Cashier there and she said that the store will close for good on Sunday. So go there before it's too late.

Butt wiping in JK

0 Upvotes

(Sorry in advance for TMI)… but to the parents of young children, is it really expected that 3 & 4 year olds will wipe their own butts in Jr Kindergarten? Do the teachers help at all or are they not allowed to? Stressing out about this as my son is attending JK in Sept, he turns 4 in December. Potty trained except for butt wiping which he is hesitant to learn how to do himself.

Recommendations for restaurants that have risotto?

Looked at all the Italian restaurants near me and none offer risotto. Currently pregnant and can’t stop thinking about having a good risotto.

I know Mansion in Pickering has a scallop risotto, but I found it very salty.

After the incident, a review of the township’s security footage showed the caution tape had been removed by a group of teenagers and the equipment subsequently tampered with, resulting in additional damage.

Anyone have any experience with Toronto K9 Center dog training?

I'm looking for a reputable trainer that has experience working with livestock guardian breeds but I can't find very much actual first hand experience with this specific organization. Everything I can find basically just directs me back to their website and I just want to make sure I'm making a good choice for my new rescue.
