You're weekly peek inside Arabella Park. I feel like I'm in a Mervyn's commercial from the 90s.
What to do.
There's no better place to hide from election coverage than at the grand opening of the new Costco at 930 Erb Street in Waterloo. I didn't grow up in Canada, but I will still call this place the Price Club because I respect tradition. Doors open this Tuesday, November 8 and 8am.
This is something I haven't seen before - a new residential community development is sponsoring a concert - Dragonette at Maxwell's Presented by The Hub this Wednesday, November 9. Doors open at 7:30pm. $20 in advance. You should check out the plans - this development is massive.
