THUMBS UP – to Doug Brown and staff at Pharmacy Associates of Port Perry for going above and beyond just filling prescriptions. I recently left an important prescription at home and thanks to Doug, he came to my rescue and I was able to get my medication in Spain.  Thanks everyone.

THUMBS UP – to Dana’s Goldsmithing for being awarded the 2024 Canadian Retailer of the Year, by CJA Awards. Congratulations from all of Scugog!

THUMBS DOWN – to all those who litter! Unfortunately photos came to light on the Port Perry Bulletin on Wednesday October 30, re: the mess that is left behind daily at Foodland after school lunch hour! Come on everybody, please do not litter, this is our town and lets show some respect.

THUMBS UP – to the Scugog Fire Department for driving through Apple Valley giving out candy to trick-or-treaters! You had many little ones mesmerized!

THUMBS DOWN – to people who post on social media asking for reviews and post reviews of doctors and surgeons at Medical Associates of Port Perry. This is an inappropriate way of seeking reviews. There are professional sites to see reviews of doctors/surgeons (i.e. RateMD). How would you feel if someone were to post on socials asking reviews of you and your job performance at your workplace? We are a small town and our doctors are a part of our community! Be more courteous.

THUMBS UP – a resident would like to thank the nurses, PSW’s and all the other workers who work at Port Perry Place, LTC facility, for their dedication to the residents and who are extremely helpful to visitors as well.

THUMBS DOWN – to the Township for leaving the balusters out of the pathway, between the boat launch area and Simcoe St. These openings are a safety issue, as they are large enough for a child or pet to get their foot or paw caught in. 

THUMBS UP – a reader would like to give a very big thumbs up to the construction crew that did the Water Street job. They did it incredibly fast and looks like a great job! We do believe a lot of people would agree.

THUMBS UP – to the employees of Great Blue Heron Casino for an engagement/team building initiative of building 10 bikes and donating them to a charity. The lucky recipient this year was Big Brothers Big Sisters of North Durham, enabling ten littles to receive a great gift!
