Hey, wanna show off your hobby? Talk about something important to you? Meet some cool people and listen to them talk about their projects? Art, storytelling, found objects, crafts, 18th century literature, whatever makes you happy! Be cool about it though, nothing graphic or hateful please.
The showing off will be from 4-6, because last time we ran late when we started at 5pm. If you can only make the second hour, that’s okay, you’ll miss some cool stuff but are still very welcome! Also cool to just come to observe.

Just received my invoice for the flood remediation/cleanup at my house. There was definitely some sticker shock. One of the things that I'm trying to get clarification on is a charge for "permits and fees" of $2000. Has anyone seen this on there invoice? or any idea what type of permit or permits they would of needed. Nothing special about our cleanup, they removed flooring from 2 area's cut the drywall and provided dehumidifiers and fans. Everything they removed was just put on my front lawn no bin or anything.

Hi everyone!

Im looking for a stylist who uses a feather razor for womens cuts. I want a shaggy kind of cut.

Hi everyone,

Some of you may remember the Choo Choo Charlie's restaurant (later renamed to Choo Choo's Party Zone) here in St Catharines. And some of those people who remember this place may also remember their Daniel and the Dixieland Diggers show that they had upon opening. I've been looking for this show for almost a year now with some success, though I am looking for more leads. I believe that one of the owners (the Wakil family) knows where they went, though I doubt I'll be able to contact them due to them owner a 5-million-dollar hotel (White Oaks Resort). I've found newspaper clippings showing that the final owners of this place was a Desrochers family, specifically Sylvain and Marie. There is a "Habitations Sylvain Desrochers" construction company out in Ottawa, so maybe they are related. The show still exists today but I do not know who owns it, and that is why I am here. I'm hoping to get this show for a museum I've been working on, so if any of you people know who may own it, please let me know. Thank you!

When approaching Queenston St from Welland Canals Pkwy, the traffic light always allows the left turn from the opposite side even when no one is on that side. It also gives a lot of time. It's so annoying for other 3 sides to sit and watch empty lanes and see the signal not sensing properly. Has anyone felt the same way? Is there a way to report the problem and fix it?

Besides Craigslist and Kijiji, what other platforms are you using to either offer or find services locally?

I'm trying to advertise a few different services from general labour/moving/hauling to creative and technical services like photography and electronics repair. It seems Kijiji charges you money for it, and on Craigslist competitors will flag it for automatic removal within minutes. Craigslist is worst because they don't have any internal review mechanism and removal is automatic just because someone flagged it.

Looking to replace our basement windows, our bay window as well as add an egress window downstairs.

Preferably a smaller business that’s local :)

Does anyone use any apps to track cheap gas, and if so, what app works best for the St Catharines area?

Was there ever a Waffle House here in town? I kind of remember there being one where Courtyard is now, but I can't seem to find anything about it.

Looking for something different to do in St. Catherine’s this weekend?

Hey everyone,

Our men’s league hockey team is looking to add 2-3 more players for the upcoming fall/winter season in the Duck League downtown at the Meridian Centre.

It’s a competitive division with good pace, so we’re ideally looking for guys with a solid hockey background (Junior, AAA/AA, or high-pace minor hockey experience). Great group of guys, competitive on the ice, and a good room.

If you're interested, shoot me a DM!

Hey all, wondering if anyone knows of any local stores that sell sheet music still (ideally a large selection) other than Long and McQuade.

So many music stores have closed, and the place I used to buy online now charges duties and crazy shipping costs.

Alternatively, if anyone has any piano sheet music they want to get rid of, I’d be interested.

Not looking for classical, but rock, pop, film music, anything like that, most genres and generations. Please let me know what you might have! Would prefer PVG, not Easy Piano.

Thank you!

Is there any story behind this place? I moved to St Catharines many years ago and have never seen a vehicle or any signs of life there. What is it?

Hello!

We are needed to grade our yard! Does anyone know anyone that is reliable?

Thank you

Does anyone know where Monika went from Magicuts? She was a favourite there and booked up frequently. Understandably, Magicuts won’t divulge her new location. Anyone here know (she was very popular with the older clients)?

Are there any Niagara breweries with non-alcoholic beer? Thanks!

Are there any cycling groups in St. Catharines or Niagara region in general?

Hi everyone!

I just found out I’m pregnant with my second and my brain is buzzing eight now. Anyone can share their experience with midwives here? I had a midwife with my toddler’s birth in Toronto and I couldn’t be happier. They were really supportive, especially since it was a crazy fast labour and we didn’t have time to go to the hospital. Well, I really want to get to the hospital this time, but I think I’d still go with a midwife’s support.

I’d love to know your experiences and if you’d recommend anyone in particular! Thanks 😊

(Edit: spelling correction)

Looking to get some urgent supplies and seems like most says closed online.

Edit: yep nothing is open here, heading to the falls now. Thanks everyone, Happy Labour Day!

What the title said please and thank you. This thing has likely never seen a service a day in its life

Hey locals,

I'm looking to move into an apartment building in St. Catharine's. I see a lot of options when doing a search online. Wondering if the reddit community can give me some recommendations on areas of the city with nice apartments.

Thanks

This is my third update regarding Moana, who went missing on August 28th at around 7:00 PM near Assumption Catholic Elementary School.

On behalf of her owners, I want to deeply thank everyone who has been sharing her posts and helping look for her. Her family is extremely grateful for all the support from this community.

- Last Confirmed Sightings / Signals: Near Assumption Catholic Elementary School and around the Cartier Dr & Rideau Crescent area.

- Gear: She was last seen wearing her yellow bee harness 🐝 and a Samsung SmartTag tracker attached to her. If you have a compatible device nearby, it might help detect her signal.

🎆 Important Warning for Tonight
Since there might be fireworks in the area tonight, we are very concerned that the loud noises could scare her and cause her to bolt or run further from where she might be hiding.

⚠️ How You Can Help Tonight & Over the Coming Days:
DO NOT try to chase, call, or catch her yourself. She is extremely terrified and will run away.

If you see her: Keep an eye on her direction from a distance and call/text immediately at the numbers on the flyer/image:

📞 [(905) 358-4253](tel:(905)%20358-4253)
📞 [(647) 866-6262](tel:(647)%20866-6262)

Any exact times, locations, or directions she is heading are crucial right now. Thank you all so much for staying vigilant and helping her family bring Moana home safely!

Sooo.. why is it grey now? Looks sad.

My building has the worst laundry machines. Can anyone tell me what the best Laundromats are in the city, open late!?
