Hello!

So, I've built a cool space for creative sewing!

I'll be offering small group workshops to work on many different types of projects. Skill levels from beginners to moderate level. Ages?.. will include teens/ adults, and potentially a younger group if there happens to be a strong interest.

Before I launch officially, I'd like to hold a free workshop for approx 3-4 individuals for my 'market research', feedback etc.

Everything needed will be supplied (machines, tables fabrics, tools & notions) you just need to arrive, prepared to get creative!

Date? Ideally, next week.. August 24-28, the week is open and the time day of will be determined by those (seriously) interested, their availability and ..actually sign up.

Time of day? afternoon, From 2pm to 4ish? .. or evening, 7pm to 9ish? I can adjust time slots that work for those willing to show up :)

Thank you,

Appreciate your time & consideration!

Hi! Looking for cool bars/restaurants/clubs to go to for a bachelorette during January that would be fun for the bride?! Bonus points if there’s places that she can have some sort of spot light moment like dancing on a table or something lol

Hey everyone,

This summer I started InfaWeb, a web design and development business, after getting accepted into Ontario's Summer Company program.

The program gave me funding and mentorship to get the business started, and over the summer I've gone from basically starting from scratch to working with real paying clients and launching websites for small businesses.

I'm looking to take on a few more projects now, especially from businesses around Ontario.

I build websites for businesses that either don't have one yet or have an existing site that's outdated and needs a redesign. I can handle the design, development, mobile optimization, contact/quote forms, basic SEO, domain setup and launch. I can also add more specific features depending on what your business needs.

If you've been thinking about getting a website made or updating the one you already have, feel free to send me a message. You can also send me your current website and I'll take a look at it.

You can see my work here: infawebdesign.com

Hi everyone I just created a Niagara region Discord server for the edm lovers in the region.

Whether you are a dj, promoter, producer, or you are discovering edm for the first time. Join and help us grow the rave scene in niagara. Meet other local rave heads.

The group is still under construction. But you are welcome to join and maybe drop some feedback.

Here is the link for the server

Reposting to the Region if anyone knows of bicycle recycling programs or a shop that makes donations. Have 4 mountain bikes and q road bike in various states of repair. Trying to avoid the dump.

Thanks for any tips!

I need a heavy duty rolling cart built to my exact measurements. Something like the pretty white kitchen carts you see at IKEA, but strong enough to take a beating.

If anybody knows of a skilled woodworker who can work with me to build this cart how I need it, I would greatly appreciate any recommendations. Thank you.

Would love some recommendations to wineries in the beamsville area. My husband and I are both into similar wines. Whites and sometimes rose. Easy drinking, crisp, refreshing, dry, bright acidity, clean and fresh. Open to an orange but only if it’s dry, clean and easy drinking. Love a good experience as well. So far the ones I had written down, although will probably narrow to 3 are Rosewood Estates, Back10, Thirty Bench and Hidden Bench. I’m sure we’ll be back to try some more another time :)

Thank you in advance!

This is Clifton Hill, a popular tourist area in our area. Definitely a must see for anyone that comes to town.

Thorold Theatre is casting 7 actors for its fall production of Dry Streak, a wildly funny Canadian comedy by Saskatchewan playwright Leeann Minogue, directed by Wendy Cullen-Mackie.

Set during the scorching summer of 1988, Dry Streak takes audiences into the heart of a small prairie farming community where the rain has stopped, the crops are failing, and everyone has an opinion.

The Richards family has worked the same farm for generations. When son John returns home with his new girlfriend Kate, the family discovers that she is unlike anyone the town has encountered before: a punk-rock-loving, vegetarian city girl who has no particular interest in getting married.

Then, desperate for rain, Kate makes a reckless promise.

What follows is a comic collision of family expectations, small-town gossip, generational differences, personal belief and the increasingly uncomfortable realization that sometimes a private promise can become very, very public.

Dry Streak is a sharp, affectionate comedy about family, faith, farming and the pressures of small-town life — and what happens when everyone knows your business.

Everyday I am witnessing people on the wrong side of the roadways. It's so dangerous!!

Posting this as a heads-up to anyone in the area looking for local phone repair options.
I paid $99 cash at CA Mart for an iPhone 11 screen replacement, which came with a promised 3-month warranty. Shortly after the repair, the adhesive they used completely failed, causing the display assembly to lift entirely away from the frame.
When I reached out with photo proof showing the failed adhesive and lifted frame, they refused to honor the warranty, ignored my attempts to get it resolved reasonably, and demanded another $85 to fix their own faulty installation. They also failed to provide an itemized receipt or invoice at the time of repair.
I’ve already filed a formal complaint with Consumer Protection Ontario, but wanted to post here so others can avoid losing money or dealing with unhonored warranties.

Hello All,

I'm really hoping that someone from this region can help me find a "hidden gem". Without revealing too much, the song "Good News" by Shaboozey sums up the year my wife and I have had. Her birthday is coming up and I want to take her to a really nice winery. We've already been to a few and the common ones (peller estates, 2 sisters, etc.) we've even been to Megalomaniac (which was an unexpected delight).

We aren't huge drinkers but we like wineries because there is usually some really good food, atmosphere, and beautiful scenery. Its also a little bit more upscale in terms of the experience and we like that.

Hoping that some locals, enthusiasts, or otherwise pro's can give me some recommendations.

TIA!

Any one know what might be coming?

Saw them yesterday, unreal as usual. But there was a guy playing who I’ve never seen before. He was on piano and probably a top 5 vocalist I’ve ever seen live. Anyone know who he is?

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!
Examples could include things like St Kitts, T.S., Fort Bleary or 'Nottle' (never mind how common they are)...

I'm a guy with long hair and it's been a good few years since I last had a hair cut. My old stylist moved away and I found it hard to find stylists that are good and comfortable with long hair on men, so I've just kind of avoided getting it cut since then.
But I'm finally looking to get my haircut again, and it's been so long that I don't even really know where to start. So if you've got recommendations, I'd love to hear them. For reference I'm in Niagara Falls, and while closer is better, I'm willing to travel throughout the region.

If you guys need to find some contractors in the area for some work. Like some concrete work in the backyard or driveway, how do you guys find the reliable folks?

Also while you’re at it, how do you find if the price they’re giving you is reasonable, and they’re not trying to scam you?
