In a recent government meeting, the community celebrated the appointment of Deshaun as the new Dean of Students, a role akin to an assistant principal focusing on student behavior. The meeting also highlighted preparations for the upcoming homecoming festivities, themed around Disney villains, featuring characters like Maleficent and Captain Hook. The homecoming parade is scheduled for October 25, followed by the dance on October 26, with hopes that ongoing construction at the football field will be completed in time for the last game of the season.

Additionally, the meeting acknowledged National Custodian Day, expressing gratitude to custodial staff across all schools. Upcoming events include parent-teacher conferences on October 17 and a half-day for elementary schools on Halloween. The meeting also promoted community engagement through programs like \"Watch Dog Night,\" aimed at involving male figures in students' lives, and \"Parents on Patrol,\" which welcomes all community members to participate.

The recreation department announced new after-school classes, including sign language and tennis, with registration encouraged to avoid cancellations due to low enrollment. A successful \"Trunk or Treat\" event is planned for October 23, collecting items for the Grosio Bridal Shelter.

In infrastructure updates, renovations at the Tipsy Fish and Centennial Farm were discussed, including new windows for horse barns and ongoing playground improvements. The marina has also opened additional winter storage space for boats.

Lastly, a new website was launched to streamline access to community events and programs, enhancing communication and engagement within the township.
