🌭☀️What a fantastic Community Picnic ☀️🌭

A huge THANK YOU to our Parks & Recreation Board for hosting another successful Community Picnic! Your time, effort, and dedication to bringing our community together are truly appreciated. 💗

And thank you to everyone who came out and joined us! With approximately 200 people in attendance, it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces enjoying an evening together. Couldn't have asked for better weather, and it was the perfect evening to gather, visit, laugh, and enjoy our community.

A special thank you as well to everyone who supported the 50/50 draw - it was a great success! 🎟️

 🚧Guardrail Installation This Week 🚧

The Village has a contractor starting today installing a guardrail on Valleyview Cres. Guardrail installation will continue throughout the week in the following areas:
🚩1300 Block Highwood Ave
🚩Corner of Schwann Ave & Adair St
🚩Greystone Bay

🛑A new 3-Way STOP will also be installed in front of the Village Office. This new STOP is to improve traffic control and visibility in the area and provide an additional safety measure at this busy intersection. Please pay close attention to the new signage once it is installed and be prepared to stop. 🛑

This important safety work is being completed thanks to funding received through the SGI Traffic Safety Grant. We're grateful for the support that allows us to make these improvements to our roads and help keep our community safer.

Please watch for construction crews, slow down, and use extra caution when travelling through these areas. While construction is underway, some affected areas may be reduced to one lane.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation while this work is completed!

 A friendly reminder to all that golf carts and ATVs must be operated in accordance with the Village's bylaws and all applicable provincial laws.

Golf carts are a fun way to get around our community, but safety and compliance are everyone's responsibility. Please take a moment to review Golf Cart Bylaw No. 06/2024 to make sure you are familiar with the rules.

ATVs are a great way to enjoy our community and surrounding areas, but responsible operation helps keep everyone safe and maintain positive relationships with our neightbours. Please take a moment to review Traffic Bylaw No. 3/16.

Let's enjoy the summer, ride responsibly and keep safety a priority. Thank you for helping keep our community safe and enjoyable for everyone! 🌞

💦Buena Vista Beach Water Caution 💦

**UPDATE** Public Health has contacted the Village (Aug 10) and advised that the water sample results for E. coli and microcystin, the blue-green algal toxin, both came back acceptable.

Public Health has contacted the Village Office after receiving reports of potential algae blooms in the water at Buena Vista Beach.

Water samples were collected from the beach today for testing. We will be notified once the results are available and will provide an update if the presence of toxic algae is confirmed.

As a precaution, residents and visitors are encouraged to use caution around the water until testing results are received.                                                     August 7, 2026

The Village of Buena Vista is proud to support STARS to make it possible for them to be here when we need them most.
