The Toronto Blue Jays are officially headed to the World Series for the first time since 1993 - and we’re celebrating together!
📍 Mill Street, Orangeville
📅 Friday, October 24th - GAME 1
🕖 Pre-game coverage starts at 7:00 PM | First pitch at 8:00 PM
Bring your chair (no picnic tables this time!) and dress warmly (from past experience I recommend long johns, toques, mitts, and a warm blanket!) - we’re closing down Mill Street and setting up a big screen so we can cheer as one community.
🍔 Food & Drinks will be available from Taphouse Craft Beer + Kitchen (alcoholic drinks must stay on their property).
💙 Admission is FREE – but please consider bringing a non-perishable food donation for the Orangeville Food Bank.
📅 SAVE THE DATE: If the series goes to a Game 7 on November 1st, we’ll do it all again for one more unforgettable night!
✨ Sports have a way of bringing people together – let’s celebrate the Jays, our town, and the power of community spirit.
One Community. One Team. One Big Screen.
💙⚾️ Let’s Go Blue Jays! ⚾️💙

We are currently seeking public input on Policy 518 - Students with Life-Threatening Medical Conditions.
This policy conveys the board’s commitment to supporting students with prevalent medical conditions, such as asthma, anaphylaxis, diabetes and epilepsy, to ensure they have full access to school in a safe, inclusive, and healthy environment. This includes fostering well-being and empowering students to manage their medical needs to the best of their ability.
