SPRINGTIME IN YORK REGION

Dorothea Helms Connects people and ideas, and can be reached at writer@wsws.ca

t’s now officially spring, and if you live in York Region, you have a myriad of activities and events available to you! There are nine Municipalities in the Region, all featuring breathtaking scenery as buds burst open, and crocuses and tulips pop up. The Regional Municipality of York extends from the south shores of Lake Simcoe to Steeles Avenue in Toronto. Anyone seeking a new home will find great choices in small towns, rural areas, low-rise suburban communities, sleek condominiums in urban settings and high-quality retirement residences. Spring is a great time to shop. Did someone say shop? In York Region, you’ll have your choice of big-box stores, modern shopping centres, and even antique stores and quaint boutiques in historic surroundings.

Power-shoppers, think fabulous Upper Canada Mall in Newmarket, Pacific Mall (North America’s largest indoor Chinese mall) in Markham, and the incomparable Vaughan Mills Shopping Centre, which is like a city unto itself. Outdoor-lovers flock to York Region for the limitless opportunities they find in the York Regional Forest, which is open to the public 365 days a year. York includes beautiful sections of the Oak Ridges Moraine, numerous parks, Conservation Areas, and at its northern border, Lake Simcoe for birding, boating, fishing and swimming. And if you’re a golfer, how about more than 70 courses available to you, from beginner to championship? Bicyclers, spring means dusting off your feet-powered vehicles and getting out there to explore. York Region is home to cycling clubs, multi-use tracks, YRT bike racks, bike repair shops and more. Cycling is awesome exercise, and it’s an environmentally friendly way of getting from A to B. Of course, my favourite sport is eating, and when it comes to dining out, York is peppered (pun intended) with a refreshing and tempting assortment of multi-cultural facilities. From coffee shops to pubs, cafés, bistros and finedining restaurants, the variety is tantalizing. Throughout the year, you can enjoy outdoor and indoor art exhibitions; music, film and food festivals; heritage celebrations; antique and vintage car shows; sporting competitions;

and fall fairs. Canada’s Wonderland is always a treat for “kids” of all ages, and it opens on May 1. Culturally speaking, the Markham Theatre, Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts and other state-of-the-art facilities offer live theatre, music, dance and other performances. The Varley Art Gallery of Markham and the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg both provide the quintessential Canadian art experience. York Region is also home to an impressive array of educational facilities, including the recently announced York University Markham Centre satellite

campus. It will be the first university campus in York Region, which is one of the fastest growing in Canada. York Region is poised to face the future with forward thinking and a carefully crafted Strategic Plan. The overall vision for the Region is “Creating Strong, Caring and Safe Communities” – and when it comes to shopping for a new home, what’s more important than those? To find out more about upcoming activities and events in York Region, visit www.york.ca and www.yorkscene.com.
