Hi all! We’ll be building at the corner of The Trail and Pinetree Drive this year and are going to need a place to live while doing so. We’re looking for a 2+ bedroom rental for the next 6 – 12 months starting around April 1 (flexible). Unfurnished would be great, but we can also just store our things. We also have a well behaved cat (who is good about only clawing his mat, not your/our stuff). If you have a place you could rent out, please let us know:

416-778-9322 (call/text)

And for the building-curious: We’re working with Blackbaer Sustainability to make a high efficiency, solar-powered, multi-generational, single-story home. The house won’t likely be a full “net-zero” home but we’re going to try to get close! This will be our second ‘eco-build’ so if there are any building-science nerds in the community who also love this stuff feel free to drop us a note (or drop by our little corner of paradise when you see us there)!

We’re very excited to be joining you all in Huron Woods as soon as we can!

Due to multiple mix-ups with our Huron Woods mail, the Grand Bend Post Office has introduced a new process to flag mailboxes where this happens regularly.

If you receive other people’s mail in your box on a regular basis, please contact Andra or Darlene at 519-238-8080 to let them know. They will place a yellow sticker inside your mailbox to alert the delivery person to be extra careful when placing mail in your slot.

Some residents may receive misdirected mail occasionally. The Post Office asks that you do not deliver it personally, even if you know the intended recipient. Instead, please write “Delivered to Wrong Address” on the envelope and place it in the outgoing mail slot at the Huron Woods mailboxes. The delivery person will then redirect it to the correct mailbox.

Recently, one of the full-panel mailbox doors was left open and unattended at the Huron Woods mailboxes. If you see a full-panel door left open, please contact Andra or Darlene immediately at 519-238-8080 so they can secure it.

Hopefully, with these new measures in place, everyone will receive their mail in a timely manner.

Our daughter, Julia Van Der Pas, is missing two packages that Canada Post marked as delivered on February 12, 2025. Unfortunately, they were not in our mailbox. We’re wondering if they may have been delivered to you by mistake.

Both packages are quite small. If you happen to have received them, please let us know and we will pick them up.

You can contact me at 519-238-5415 or lpheinz@yahoo.com

Many thanks,
Louise Heinz
