Here’s your Caledon Week in Review for the week of June 22nd to 28th.

It was another busy week across the community as residents settled into summer and several important local stories made headlines.

The Town of Caledon continued celebrating June as Recreation and Parks Month, with free programs, family activities, fitness opportunities and outdoor events taking place throughout the municipality. Residents were encouraged to take advantage of local parks, trails and recreation facilities before the month wraps up.

The Town also highlighted Caledon's newest official symbol. Following a community vote that drew more than 900 ballots, the Downy Woodpecker has officially been named Caledon's town bird. The designation follows Caledon's recognition as a Bird Friendly City by Nature Canada and reflects ongoing efforts to support local wildlife and environmental stewardship.

Roadwork remained a major topic in Bolton, where rehabilitation work continued on Crestwood Road, Little Court, Maidstone Court and Kentbridge Court. Drivers experienced lane restrictions and local traffic controls as crews carried out curb and pavement improvements. Residents are being reminded to allow extra travel time and follow all posted construction signage.

At the Alton Mill Arts Centre, the Wanderlust exhibition wrapped up on June 28th. The popular show featured the work of more than 30 local artists, showcasing painting, photography, ceramics, fibre art and mixed-media creations inspired by journeys, memories and personal experiences.

On the public safety front, Caledon OPP reported the recovery of a stolen vehicle on Coleraine Drive on Saturday night. Three people were arrested following a police investigation, and several charges have been laid. Police continue to encourage residents to report suspicious activity in their neighbourhoods.

Looking ahead, residents are invited to participate in a virtual Traffic Safety Advisory Committee meeting scheduled for early July. The session will provide an opportunity for the community to discuss local traffic concerns and hear updates from town staff, Peel Region and the OPP.

And finally, with Canada Day just around the corner, local organizations and community groups are preparing celebrations and events that will kick off across Caledon next week, marking the beginning of another busy summer season.
