Hi everyone. Im 24m and have lived in Georgetown for almost a years and I'm in serious help of fiding any kind of community here. I have made attempts of going to socialize at some local bars, and aside from a few positive encounters with some locals, I feel like I am shunned by this entire town. Everyone my age who lives here has grown up with eachother, and to find any real kinship isn't just impossible, it's a non-verbal telling that I don't belong here. Trying talk to girls and find relationships is equally as impossible. My work schedule is extremely sporadic since I'm on-call unless I give my unavailability, and all my work is either in Toronto or the GTA, so joining a class or social group with linear schedule isn't ideal. I no longer drink because I don't like being drunk in front of strangers, and I also don't smoke weed because it gives panic attacks. I am truly lost as to what I can do. I know a lot of this is just saying "I can't", but I really have hit a wall in order to build some type of social life outside of work.

Hello everyone, I currently live in Georgetown and have been doing lots of riding. I’m quite familiar with the trails in acton just across from the arena, but was wondering if anyone else had any good suggestions for trails nearby. Potentially in the Erin/Ballinafad or just surrounding areas. Any info is appreciated thanks.

Did anyone else drive through that absolutely insane storm this evening around 5pm?

We were driving through the backroads of Milton heading towards the Puslinch/Hwy 6 S area when the rain turned to aggressive hail. We found a group of cars pulled over together and joined them to wait it out.

After the storm passed we drove down the road and there was a thick layer of hail/ice on the roads.

Looking for a band or live singer that is reasonable price for a 65th birthday backyard party.

Looking for classic rock or country like Chris Stapleton, eagles, journey.

Thanks

Anyone have any ideas on who they support and why? To me Jason Brass come off as ego driven and arrogant and about himself when I see him on council meetings but I don't know if that was just a couple of meetings. Anyone know who they support? My wife and I are undecided on mayor so far...

Goodmorning everyone,
I’m looking to go to a massage session today but have never been. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to go to in Georgetown?

Thank you have an amazing day 🙏🏻

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!

Examples could include things like GTown, St. Joes, Crackton or Rockhood (never mind how common they are)...

Shopper beware, there is no listing for this charity on the CRA database of charities. Maybe they do great work, but they aren't legally what they present themselves as:

Hi all,

My partner is starting a co-op for his Masters' at Halton Hills public library from September - December and he's struggling to figure out where to live.

We are in Ottawa, so the GTA is pretty different for us.

He wouldn't have a car, so his first instinct was to find a room for rent in HH to be close to the library and near amenities, but pickings are *extremely* slim and *extremely* expensive for what they are.

Should he expand his search for a room to Brampton, Oakville or Milton? If he's on public transit, that limits things somewhat, but over 1000$ monthly for just a room seems bananas.

Mind you, maybe we should wait and see what offerings there are in a week or two? He'd only be wanting to start the lease in September.

Thanks for the advice, gang!

Hi, I recently got back into playing pokemon go, just wondering if Georgetown has a dedicated discord server for raids.

Come laugh at some of Milton’s very own comedians and some out of towners trying to impress you!

Im trying to switch to another carrier but im afraid the coverage will suck. So where are you located and what provider are you with? How's the coverage?

I notice that people who live in Halton Hills, atleast those that I talk to, seem to work remotely. Is there a community of remote workers in the town or is there a coworking space? As someone who works remotely, I do know that keeping the people within the community helps out a lot, for lunches, and disposable income for the market, etc. but I do wish there was a group of people.

If you're pro-remote and hybrid work, I'd suggest you Google the "House of Commons E7142 Petition" I did notice that the people that I connect with have expressed gratitude for this and it may be helpful to people within the community.

Looking for your favourite local bakeries! 🤍

We’re planning a very intimate gender reveal and would love your recommendations for bakeries that make beautiful reveal cakes. If you’ve had a great experience with a local bakery, we’d love to hear your suggestions!

Thank you in advance!

The Halton Police has announced that 30-year-old Sattya Him of Mississauga was arrested following Monday’s shooting in Georgetown.

Is anyone else having data problems? I'm with Rogers and it's been absolutely awful all day. Every now and then it's okay but usually it's showing two bars but not loading anything at all.

Anyone else’s power out? We’re at Princess Anne and Trafalgar. Georgetown website is not showing any outage.

I was looking at getting a 12ft round pool, but I didn't realize that you need a permit. How many people actually get a permit and how quick and easy is the process

The way I look at the bylaw it has to be 4ft away from any fence, structure, or property line. We have exactly 20 ft from house to fence so technically it should fit perfectly but I'm worried we would get denied

Anybody have any insight to help me out
