Solar Eclipse - April 8th

Please take caution during the solar eclipse on April 8th, expected to occur just after 2:00 pm.  Looking directly at the uncovered sun without protection can cause retinal burns, blurred vision, or loss of eyesight.  There are no pain sensors in your retinas to tell you that your eyes are being damaged.  Once symptoms begin, the damage is usually too late to reverse.  For more information, please see Solar Eclipse Safety or visit the Canadian Space Agency's website at https://www.asc-csa.gc.ca/eng/astronomy/eclipses/total-solar-eclipse.asp

Load Restrictions in Effect (Half-Loads)

Load restrictions will be applied to all Township of O’Connor roads starting Thursday, March 14, 2024 and will continue during the period designated by the Township of O’Connor. The Township of O’Connor reserves the right to extend the load restrictions due to the weather and/or road conditions after the MTO has lifted their restrictions. MTO has also placed load restrictions on Highways 595 & 588 effective March 11, 2024.

The O'Connor Outdoor Rink - Closed for the season

The warm temperatures have shut the rink down for the season.  Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who continued to keep it going as long as possible.  We hope that everyone enjoyed themselves this year and hope to see you again next season.
