The 172nd Annual Owen Sound Fall Fair is happening Friday and Saturday (no midway this year, but there’s plenty of other fun to be had).
Tonight is the “Deadly Pairing” Tom Thomson Art Gallery fundraiser at Coffin Ridge Winery, and tomorrow brings the Owen Sound Kidney Walk, a Marvel Card Trade and PC Children's Charity BBQ, the Arts in the Garden fundraiser for SweetWater Music Festival, and a whole lot more. Find details in our events listings below.
While I have you here, Paul Farrow from South Bruce Peninsula has an important warning to share with readers.
And in today’s curated news, we have updates from the Library in Owen Sound, Grey Bruce OPP, the Wiarton BIA, MPP Rick Byers, and more. We have an update on the multiple shooting reports in Meaford that sparked Wednesday’s lockdown, too.
