A new service club is taking root in the community with the official chartering of the Optimist Club of Goderich on Tuesday, May 27.

Designed to spark curiosity and passion for healthcare careers right here in Huron County, a healthcare camp will once again host students to experience hands-on activities and meet healthcare providers.

Phase one of the downtown infrastructure project began on May 12 as sections of the Square are closed to road traffic while water and sewer pipes are replaced, and new electrical work is done for street lighting.

Recently the Town of Goderich’s 2025 operational budget has been approved for key capital projects.

At the recent Rotary District 6330 Conference, longtime Goderich residents and Rotarians Ross Field and Rosanne Barnett were presented with the Rotary Pinnacle Service Award, the highest distinction the district can bestow for service to a specific program.

A generous donation of $15,000 made by the Lions Club was given to the Menesetung Bridge Association (MBA) to help inflate the funds for the bridge repair project.
