What is Sell ‘n STAY ?

TM

Sell ‘n STAY™ is an exciting new solution that provides additional, previously un-thought of housing options for seniors. Safe, simple and private, it is an option for homeowners who want to unlock the equity in their home to fund a better life, all without having to move out of their home. Through the Sell ‘n STAY™ program, seniors sell their home to an investor buyer. The senior then enters into a lease agreement with the new owner. Although created with seniors in mind, Sell ‘n STAY™ is a valuable option for a variety of circumstances, for homeowners of all ages. We will be holding a seminar on May 26th at 6p.m. Call 647-298-0997 for more information!

MISSISSAUGA MARATHON

On Saturday evening the 10km run began at the PC Legion and took runners along a visually stunning route along Lake Ontario finishing at Lakefront Promenade Park. Although the weather was quiet dreary it did not affect the positive energy of the participants and spectators alike. The Half and Full Marathon on Sunday did not see the weather improve for the 8,000 participations. Congratulations to all the runners who reached their personal goals!

A SIMPLE

MAC N' CHEESE AU GRATIN

A

ny parent can relate to the struggles of dealing with children who are picky eaters. They can also relate to the dinner time rush of preparing a meal the whole family will love - and one they can feel good about serving. Pasta is a simple, wholesome and versatile option for families today. In fact, according to research commissioned by Canada's top pasta brand, Catelli, six in 10 Canadian parents feel pasta makes their kids happy and keeps them fueled. Happy kids means happy parents!
