[Brian Saunderson, MPP for Simcoe-Grey @BrianSaunderson]

Congratulations to Mayor Sandie Macdonald and the @essatownship on receiving a Seniors Community Grant of up to $5,633 through the Ontario Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility.

This funding will support new seniors recreation programs including shuffleboard and cornhole, helping create more opportunities for seniors to stay active, build connections, and enjoy time together in the community.

Thank you to Minister @RaymondChoPC for supporting programs that help seniors remain active and engaged, and to Mayor Macdonald for her continued leadership and dedication to seniors in the community.
