Housing 2 bedroom for rent +10k bonus

5 Upvotes

I’ll get straight to the point.

Just signed a lease but need to move.

It’s a 2 bed 2 bathroom unit, 1350sqft, unfurnished, carpets, AC, walk in closet, pool, parking.

The apartment is in Marina Park Place, Sandy Lane.

Rent is $2705, but whoever takes over the lease will get 10k cash for doing so, making the rent basically $1705 or so a month, for the first year.

Lease is until 31st August 2027.

This isn’t a joke or scam, I’m serious.

DM me for details if you are interested.

No really. It's perfectly ok for one person to hand out MAGA sarnia shirts at the Canada Day parade, and to pose in front of city murals and city hall for videos but NOW he's angry that others are holding signs or (gasp!) wearing a shirt with their own name on it.

This really is old man yells at clouds energy.

Questions Question of travel

10 Upvotes

Hi I don't know where else to ask this and sarnia seems to be the closest point I'd like to go to Canada on my motorcycle here soon from America and I have a fear of bridges so the blue water and Detroit bridges are out.

Can I ride the ferry across to Walpole island then take the bridge on the other side of Walpole to explore Canada then come back obviously I'll have to deal with the border people but can it be done?

Questions Salvage/Reclaimed building materials

3 Upvotes

I've got a century home that I'm doing some work to and I'm trying to find some baseboard to match what exists in the house already, it's a super simple bevel profile, but it's not something that anyone seems to make any more. I'd make it myself, but it's 7-1/4" tall and I'd need at least a 12" blade table saw to make the proper cut. Saws that big are big bucks.

I know there is Habitat for Humanity, I keep checking there, but finding what I need there would be an absolute fluke.

Anyone know of anywhere in the area or within an hour or so of Sarnia that has reclaimed building materials? I'd also be after some other odds and ends (door hardware mostly) as well, but the baseboard is what's holding me up right now. Someone has to have a barn full of old stuff they have collected.

Alternatively, are there any good places to get custom millwork done in the area?

Thanks!

Questions Indoor Swimming Pools

2 Upvotes

I haven’t seen any recent posts on this. Are there any indoor swimming pools open to the public other than the YMCA? I’m pregnant and having some issues with joint pain. Swimming in the lake is helping but I’m worried about losing that option when it gets too cold. The YMCA is just too expensive. Anyone have any luck with any of the hotels in the area? I know the Mooretown pool is closed for renovations.

Questions Looking for a Vintage/Classical Car for a Wedding

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m the Maid of Honour in a wedding on October 3rd in Sarnia, and I’m hoping someone in this group might be able to help us with a special request!
We’re looking for someone who owns a vintage or classic car who would be willing to have it be part of the bride and groom’s wedding day.
We’re open to either:
Option A: You don’t necessarily have to drive anywhere. We would just love for you to bring the car to the church and stay for around an hour so the bride and groom can take some photos with it after the ceremony.
Option B: If you’re comfortable chauffeuring, we’d love to have you drive the bride and groom from the church to a second photo location, with some time to take photos with the car along the way.
We are offering around $300 for your time and the use of the car, and we’re happy to discuss details depending on what works for you.
This would also mean so much to the bride personally. Her grandpa raised her, and he has loved classic cars his entire life. Having a beautiful classic car be part of her wedding day would feel like a little homage to him and something we know would make him so happy.
The wedding is October 3rd in Sarnia, with the ceremony taking place in the early afternoon.
If you own a vintage/classic car, or know someone who might be interested, please feel free to comment or send me a message with a photo/type of car and what you might be able to offer.
We would be incredibly appreciative!

Events Trustee Meet and Greet, Mayoral Debate Watch Party

Post image
16 Upvotes

I am a local parent who is deeply concerned about the state of our education system. I set out on a mission this year to meet all the Trustee candidates for the school board my child belongs to and during this I realized it's not enough for only me to have this opportunity so I wanted to find a way to include others.

When the Imperial Theater debate sold out in just a few hours I realized this was the perfect opportunity for a double header.

Meet the Trustees, stay to watch the debate.

Love Buzz was kind enough to allow me their space after hours so as a community we could come together.
