New App to Help Kids Make Friends Through Play!

0 Upvotes

Hi Cambridge parents! I’m a Brantford mom, and I recently created KidzLink, a free app that helps parents connect and organize playdates at local parks and playgrounds.

My goal is simple: less screen time, more outdoor play and real friendships!

I’m expanding KidzLink to Cambridge and surrounding communities and would love your feedback!

Check it out: https://kidzlink.ca 😊

Municipal Elections

14 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ve been involved in local elections for over a decade now but this will be my first time voting in Cambridge - in 2022 I was still living in Kitchener. In my day job, I work with local community orgs on funding, governance, and sustainable leadership practices.

I wanted to share a guide that a friend of mine made for Cambridge folks who might be looking for progressive approaches of who to vote for: https://igshare.me/v/cr_DecOS8DiXHI

There’s lots of good resources out there, but David actually did a lot of work to figure out who was going to be good on issues like housing/homelessness. I recommend this, Cambridge Elects, and other resources out there. Education is important! I used to teach history and poli science at western, and it’s amazing how much Ontarians don’t know our own electoral system. I grew up in rural conservative BC and have always been into this stuff, so I bring a unique perspective.

Mostly importantly, don’t forget to vote! I’m in Ward 5 so I’m happy to have a councillor I really like and hope she wins again.

Hespeler How often is library parking ticketed?

1 Upvotes

It’s only 2 hours and I like to study at the library so I just want to know how enforced that 2 hour limit is. I want to study for around 5 hours but I’m just scared of that godforsaken ticket. Specifically for Hespeler and queens square location.

I highly recommend giving it a shot. I’m happy to give out some pointers so that you can get moving and having fun.

Concession Bridge Jumper

70 Upvotes

Around 1am Sunday morning, my wife and I were driving home from the movies, we were at the lights at the intersection of Water St & Cedar/Concession, heading towards 24 - while we were stopped at the red light, we saw a handful of people/teenagers hanging out around the Concession bridge. As we were watching, one of the guys randomly decided to jump over head first into the shallow water. Commotion ensued. We pulled over and called emergency and got out to check on him. He was not ok.

EMS got there and were able to pull him out, but after giving our statements to the police we left before finding out if he was ok or not.

Wondering if anyone knows this person and if they can tell me if they are ok?

Galt Ward 7 candidates

9 Upvotes

I saw someone post about Ward 6 candidates and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on Ward 7 candidates? This will be my 2nd opportunity to vote in an election and I’m trying to get as much information as I can.

I’ve also seen a lot of posts about candidates signs being taken down or damaged and I wonder if it’s just a sympathy post for votes. Thoughts?

decent roofers around Cambridge?

15 Upvotes

We have 1980s detached with an asphalt shingle roof, nearly 30 years old. After the last storm, water started dripping through the upstairs ceiling, and the stain keeps spreading. Found a few curled/missing shingles too.

Anyone know a local roofer who can come out asap? Worried about mold and more rain coming.. Repair or full replacement?

Free Nice Bunnies - Pet / Farm / Someone please rescue

15 Upvotes

I take care of two very hard to manage family members with mental health issues. This summer, one of them thought it was a good idea to get rabbits. They are now unwanted as we cannot house them. They're cute, fluffy, soft, and tan/brown. Some have a floppy ear, some don't. They're cute but they got to go.

Any leads to farms or anyone who can take em please let me know. Have about 5 or 6 left...

Galt Rogers Outage? South Galt

I'm on day 3 of a Rogers cable internet outage. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm not a Rogers customer - I get my internet through a 3rd party company that blames the outage on Rogers. The Rogers outage website says there is a an outage.
Just wondering if anyone else is out and if they have been able to find out why?

I seriously don't understand how these drivers don't get fined for noise violations. All day and night they rip through town disrupting everyone's lives. I just want to be able to open my window for some fresh air and be able to have a conversation with the person next to me.
