Local Community Spotlight
Celebrating the faces behind the places
👋 Meet Your Neighbor
At The SDG Scoop, we believe the heartbeat of our region isn’t just found in landmarks or events — it’s in the people. The volunteers, artists, coaches, caregivers, retirees, young go-getters, and everyday neighbours who make SD&G a special place to call home.
Our Local Spotlight – Community page is where we shine a little light on those folks. Each feature is pulled from our weekly newsletter and highlights someone doing something meaningful, uplifting, or just plain awesome in Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry.
Whether it’s someone organizing a food drive, sharing their talents, or simply spreading joy in small ways, this is where we tell their stories.
