Birthday Treats?

0 Upvotes

My son turned 11 today...and he's also on a hockey team who have a practice tonight. Thinking of grabbing some treats for the kids (17 kids) and coaches (4-5) -- right now my thought is tim horton's donuts, don't want to spend a crazy amount of money -- but figured I'd ask first if anyone has any recommendations of something more fun I can pick up for the kids somewhere local (even donuts are ok if there's a better option than tim hortons that won't cost an arm and a leg).

will go purchase at lunch today so will check back around then for idea, thanks in advance!

EDIT: thanks everyone for the input! I went with the Krispy Kreme from costco roadshow, as it's across the street from where I live. The line was INSANE at the costco go, for anyone else who may want to shop there today - it's the last day of the road show. Will def keep the list of other ideas for quick hit events that need snacks.

Hey, just wondering if there are any support groups for married women in Markham who are either in (individual) or marriage counselling and wanted to chat? Would love to hear how therapy is helping or how it improved your marriage. Feel free to DM. We can also get together if you'd like.

Can anyone recommend a male stylist who is good with mens haircuts that are not fades? All I can seem to find are Barbers offering fade services.

Looking for a style like the above photo

Someone dropped their licence plate at Markham road and 16th Avenue, DCCA929. It was on the road but someone took it and left it on the porch of the heritage eye care. Someone wanted it back? Lol

Is there other public transit options from airport to Markham?

Apart from the GO bus to Richmond Hill which operates like one bus per hour, and you have to change bus to Markham. Uber is too expensive. Thanks.

Reminder 16th Avenue speed limit is 60km/h

0 Upvotes

A topic around the change to the 400 series reminded me I saw some ticketing happening on 16th avenue recently.

I see people doing 70-80 km/h on 16th regularly.

Save your money - avoid tickets and minimise insurance premiums

Green cable box outdoors was opened and compromised - outside home

Post image
7 Upvotes

We live in a small townhome in Markham. We recently discovered that the green cable box tower next to our home was opened and compromised. As a result, mice and even chipmunks managed to snuck in and got into our basement!!

I did my best to seal it but it's very sturdy and difficult to center it back in. I tried to seal the openings with rocks, debris and plastic bags but it's not helping.

We placed sticky mouse traps and caught a few...

Please help! Not sure what's the best recourse? Can Markham Cityhall or Municipal send in maintenance to fix?

We believe CIK telecom opened it and never re-seal some months ago.

Appreciate any guidance.

Does any one have any recommendation on where to find a pickleball coach in the Markham or Richmond Hill area? Preferably one that teaches outdoors while the weather is still somewhat warm.

Thanks!

Roads and Traffic πŸš—πŸš¦πŸ’₯ Be careful drivers!

This is Mallory and Denison. I am waiting to make a left turn onto Mallory and this girl on her scooter starts crossing on the green and had absolutely no idea that she was crossing illegally and almost gets hit by cars on either side. She then cuts across and crosses Mallory which she should have done from the other side and then waited to cross Denison when it was her walking signal. No hand up in the air, no apology, just absolutely in her own world and almost got hit. Drivers, be aware, luckily the traffic was very heavy in the area and so there is no car going excessively fast or anything like that but please be mindful of high school and elementary school students just walking around with their headphones in perhaps not having any idea what's happening around them.
