10:00 am to 5:00 pm - Sweetwater Festival at
the Wye Marsh. Pancakes with maple syrup are always a highlight

Terrors are their own Celtic Invasion, mixing rock’s energy with traditional
folklore, dance, and humor. With an arsenal featuring classic pipes and fiddle,
driving drum tones, and signature guitar styles, we can see why Dig This
Magazine declares “The Terrors - one act to keep an eye on!” https://www.youtube.com/watch/?ref=0&v=JsuzJEgy6q4

Issues Update
OPP
This past Friday our 13 MPS officers who transferred to
the OPP graduated from their initial training. The ceremony was moving and
clearly showed the professionalism and character of our returning officers. The Town of Midland
and the OPP would like to thank the families, friends and residents for
their overwhelming support of our former MPS officers. We would like to
congratulate the officers on completing their training, and look forward to
having them back on patrol for the OPP in Midland starting Monday!
MPUC
The MPUC sale process before the Ontario Energy Board
slowly continues. The good news is that all is proceeding as expected. It looks
like a couple of more months before the process completes.
