Bridgetown, Nova Scotia

🌧️🚗 The speed limit hasn’t changed. But the conditions have.

Heavy rain is in the forecast for Nova Scotia this weekend, and wet roads can become dangerous faster than you might think.

One of the biggest risks is hydroplaning. When water builds up between your tires and the road, your tires can lose traction, leaving you with little control of your vehicle.

A few simple adjustments can make a big difference:

✅ Slow down. Reduce your speed to match road and weather conditions, especially on highways.
✅ Leave more space. Wet roads mean longer stopping distances. Give yourself extra room to react.
✅ Be smooth. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turns, and abrupt steering.
✅ Check your tires. Proper inflation and adequate tread help maintain traction.
✅ Turn on your headlights. Use your low beams so other drivers can see you from the front and the back.

And remember, just because the speed limit says you can drive at certain speed doesn’t mean you should.

🌧️ Slow down. Leave room. Get home safely.

Attention Bridgetown! The countdown for Light Up the Town is on the way, which means we are slowly announcing our amazing events for this year.

The first event and our most famous event, the tree lighting ceremony, will happen 10 minutes after the conclusion of the parade.

The parade starts at 6:00 PM! Keep your ears open for a special warning announcement down the street: someone will be walking down the route ringing a classic bell to let everyone know it's happening and ensure no one misses a moment.

Interested in entering the parade? Contact us on Facebook today!

“Each year, Canadians step up with amazing support for the National Poppy Campaign,” says Sharon McKeown, Dominion President. “Their generosity and caring are what allow us to host a range of programs and support initiatives for our Veterans and their families across the country.”

For a third year, the Legion’s collaboration with Amazon Canada will allow Canadians to receive Remembrance lapel Poppies at their doors. People across our vast country can fulfill their wish to wear a Poppy, including where there are no Legion branches or it is more difficult to find one.

All funds raised locally during the campaign stay in the communities where they were donated. Close to 20 million dollars is donated to the Poppy Fund throughout the year to help Veterans, with much of that assistance coming in during the National Poppy Campaign. Funds go directly into initiatives to support Canada’s Veterans and their families and help promote Remembrance.

🌙🚶‍♀️ NEW AT THE BRIDGETOWN SPORTS HUB! 🚶‍♂️✨

WALKING UNDER THE LIGHTS!

We're trying something new at the Bridgetown Sports Hub, and we'd love for you to be part of it!

As the evenings get darker, we're turning ON the lights and inviting everyone to come out and enjoy an evening walk around our beautiful track.

💡 The track lights will be on for FOUR special evenings:

📅 Tuesday, October 27

📅 Thursday, October 29

📅 Tuesday, November 3

📅 Thursday, November 5

🕡 TIME: 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Whether you're looking to get your daily steps in, enjoy some fresh evening air, or take a relaxing stroll with friends and neighbours, the illuminated track is a great place to do it!

👟 Walk at your own pace.

👫 Bring a friend or two.

🌟 Enjoy the track under the lights!

Everyone is welcome! ( bathroom will be available)

We're giving this idea a try over the next couple of weeks, and we'd love to see a great turnout. Who knows? With enough interest, Walking Under the Lights might become a regular Sports Hub activity!

📣 Help us spread the word! Share this post, tag your walking buddies, and we'll see you at the track!
