Walkerton Legion Turkey Roll - Saturday, Sept 27 • 3–5 PM - Walkerton Legion

Spin the wheel, cheer on your neighbours, and head home with a Thanksgiving bird (or three). Walkerton Legion’s classic Turkey Roll packs two turbo-charged hours of laughs, meat draws, and community spirit. Arrive early, the birds go fast!

HDHF Sky-High Bingo - Friday, Sept 26 • 6–11 PM - Saugeen Municipal Airport

Bingo in a hangar? Yes, please. Ten high-energy rounds, a live DJ, food-truck eats, and raffle prizes. Every dab helps the Hanover & District Hospital Foundation to keep out communities thriving. Win big while lifting local healthcare to new heights!

Mildmay Firefighter Breakfast - Sunday, Sept 28 • 8–11:30 AM • Mildmay Fire Hall

Tuck into a classic hot breakfast cooked up by the Mildmay volunteer crew. Think farm-fresh eggs, sizzling sausage and bacon, plus bottomless coffee. Donate what you can at the door; every dollar outfits the department with new lifesaving gear. See you at the hall!

Trade your couch for cliffs this fall: join Bruce Peninsula guides for moon-lit hikes under star-drenched skies, squeeze through secret caves, or tackle Ontario’s only outdoor “Forest Escape” game with your crew.

Small-group tours run out of Lion’s Head & Tobermory, and every booking helps the Bruce Peninsula Biosphere keep this paradise wild.

Our Community Calendar covers Grey & Bruce Counties. It’s a large area, so if we missed an event we are sorry, we will do better next time!

Our Community Calendar was getting a bit too enthusiastic. Turns out stuffing a week’s worth of local fun into one email makes for a very long scroll.

So we’ve given it its own space! Click the button below to check out the full lineup of events this week.

Planning a Grey-Road detour? Swing into Trixie’s Saloon in Ayton and bring your appetite. My recommendation: start with the legendary Ratch Attack (if you have a group). A share-worthy mound of pizza rolls, Tex-Mex fries, cheddar bites, mac-’n’-cheese bites and tater-tot “Spudz”.

Be sure to save some room for the small (for some reason the small is better than the large) “Trixie’s Signature” pizza. It’s chewy-charred crust is layered with a garlic-aioli base, chicken breast, bacon, spinach and sweet red-onion rings. This might be the best pizza I have ever had.. Pair it with a pint from the rotating local-brew taps and you’ll see why Ayton locals call this their mid-week reset.

A 900-metre sweep of cedar planks. The longest boardwalk on the entire Bruce Trail winds across beaver-dam wetlands and out to Sydney Bay. Giving you eye-level views of lily pads, herons and (if you’re lucky) busy beavers.

Built and cared for by the Chippewas of Nawash, the flat, family-friendly path lets you float through maples and marsh without muddy boots. The two lookout decks are made for thermos coffees and fall-colour photos.

Park at the Cape Croker gatehouse (day-use pass $15), follow the white blazes and be on the water in under five minutes. Binoculars and bug spray strongly recommended.
