Did I miss read? I thought power was supposed to be on by 7am

Live over on park row . I'm signed up for alerts but I never got anything in the mail, but the planned outage map looks to be the whole city. Anyone else not receive anything? Odd

Where does the compost go in oxford county and why can it not be made available to the public for their gardening needs?

I find youtube videos of stuff like this are so slow... i can read faster than the video plays.

Within the current municipal election happening right now, Mark Schadenberg is running as one of the two candidates for City-County Councillor. I am not necessarily telling people to vote for Kelly Gilson, but I feel more people should be openly aware of what kind of person Schadenberg is.

(TLDR: He’s been consistently arrogant within his Facebook messages, and threatened a woman with violence for posting about it.)

Recently a local woman in Woodstock (Joanna Mitchell) responded to a Facebook post posted by Deb Tait expressing disapproval of her decision to delay Woodstock’s new proposed emergency homeless shelter. Then, publicly announced she will not be voting for Tait on her own account.

In response to this post, she received a private message from Schadenberg rudely telling her to stay out of the conversation. 

After she responded to that message that she would not be voting for him either, and posted the message exchange on her account because it was rude and unprofessional; he proceeded to threaten her with violence if she publicly posted more of their messages.

After posting the entire exchange again on her Facebook account, various other people have been sharing their creepy arrogant message exchanges with him as well. Such as him constantly reaffirming how great, intelligent, and qualified he is compared to his “incompetent” competitors.

He just seems completely unstable and totally arrogant.

Anyways, here’s a Facebook link showing more of the screenshots of the various message exchanges with him if you’re curious: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2284173781876951/posts/4092947364332908/

I'm looking to get my oil changed and winters put on, but am new to woodstock, so have not found a mechanic. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Anyone know where they sell blocks of ice in Woodstock? Lots of cubes but no full blocks around it seems

I'm in need of some kind of airport transportation from the area to YYZ in the next week. Any recommendations for airport transfers, private service or other that's not $300 one way? I know I'm probably asking a lot but any recommendations would be appreciated

Hey all! What’s everyone’s take on fit for less in Woodstock? I’m looking to join a low cost gym in the area.

If anyone's interested, I participated in this and the researchers asked me to send this to anyone that might be interested.

Where in town can I get good watermelon?
I’ve purchased a couple from Zehrs and they were both filled with yellow sections. I looked it up and essentially they weren’t ripe. I was able to savage a decent amount of fruit but it was a pain.
Just wondering if there was somewhere else in town that I would have better luck with getting a ripe one.
Thanks

I’ve read platforms, visited websites and social media pages, and looked at previous voting records for anyone already on Council. After completing the Toronto Star Vote Compass (which many candidates didn’t reply to anyway), I have learned I disagree with almost everyone. For example, even the candidates I thought I aligned with said that they don’t think a land acknowledgment should be read at meetings, which is something I feel strongly about.

I am looking for progressive candidates who can think logically and critically, be as unbiased as possible, and contribute to some long term success.

Examples of things I support: the purchase of the Y for a homeless shelter, the increase in garbage bag tag prices and introduction of compost bins, revitalization of downtown, and I’d love to see studies of infrastructure and growth projections so that Woodstock continues to grow at a sustainable pace and doesn’t end up like Waterloo region who is pausing building because of no water supply.

Does my ideal candidate exist out there or should I stop living in dream land?

Bathroom Vent

Looking to find someone to vent my bathroom fan out of the roof. Anyone have any recommendations of who to contact and possibly price point im going to be looking at?

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I was wondering if Woodstock has a cloth diaper service that does pick-up and drop-offs. We've been looking online but the only one I found is permanently closed.

Anyone know where to find this in town? Update: Went to Apple land to get some. Thank you to everyone that messaged. :)

I moved to Woodstock a couple years ago and always wished we had a transit (Go train) system to Toronto and back. I have family on that side and driving down the 401 can be painful sometimes.

Does anyone else feel the same and are any of the upcoming Mayors in favor of such an idea?

🚨 CONVICTED: WOODSTOCK DAYCARE OPERATOR SENTENCED TO 7 YEARS 🚨

Trevor Hendershott, the operator of Trevor’s Childcare in Woodstock, pleaded guilty on March 16, 2026, to one count of sexual interference involving two children under 16.

The amended count covered sexual touching between February 17, 2022, and March 2, 2023.

On Friday, October 2, 2026, he was sentenced to seven years in prison, with 27 days credited for time already served.

The court also imposed a 20-year sex offender registration order, a weapons prohibition, a DNA order, a non-communication order, and restrictions on contact with children and work involving them. The remaining charges were withdrawn at the Crown’s request.

Looking for a new stove and wondering what everyone thinks is the best one out there. The last one was crap ( not naming ). Also possibly where the best place to go to purchase one. Please and thank you to all.
