Connect with staff, Regional partners, elected officials and your neighbours at upcoming fall ward events in our beautiful Town parks. Treats and activities for all! Thanks to our sponsors Terra Cotta Cookies and Tim Hortons for supporting these events.
By getting to know and appreciate our neighbours, we cultivate a deeper sense of community and foster a meaningful relationship with the place we call home.
The Town is dedicated to cultivating a sense of belonging, safety, and connection among residents. Town staff are focused on strengthening bonds within our communities and are actively working to support neighbour relationships through our Hey Neighbour engagement initiatives, offering resources that encourage organic neighbourhood connections.
Join the Hey Neighbour crew and Town staff to connect with your Halton Hills neighbours and engage with elected officials at two upcoming autumn Ward events in our beautiful Town parks.
Meet us in the park at this drop-in event and connect with your neighbours over a morning coffee! Engage with local first responders, check out EMS vehicles with our Touch-a-Truck program, and play large lawn games with your family & friends (Jenga, Connect Four, Bean Bag Toss, and more!). Residents can check out the Town Services Showcase and interact with staff to learn about Town processes, policies, and upcoming initiatives – in a fun, approachable and friendly environment.
All are welcome!
Special thanks to Terra Cotta Cookie Co. and Tim Hortons, 326 Guelph St., Georgetown for providing cookies, tea and coffee!
A neighbourhood Block Party presents the opportunity for residents of all ages to meet each other, share interests, celebrate diversity and strengthen our community connections. Block Parties help to build a strong sense of community connectedness and a culture of care and support.
If you're organizing a Block Party in your neighbourhood, our Neighbourhood Team is here to help! To support and streamline the planning process, the Town of Halton Hills staff are available to assist Block Party organizers throughout the planning process, act as a liaison, and facilitate any questions you may have.
Prior to filling out the Block Party application, please browse the available items in our block party kit that are included in our Block Party package!

Tell your neighbours, tell your friends, Play Streets is here for another summer of fun! Play Streets are special short-term road closures that turn your neighbourhood into a safe, car-free zone where residents can connect, play, and have fun together!
By transforming the street into a shared public space, our Play Streets program offers a space for residents to get to know their neighbours. Play Streets are part of the Town’s Hey Neighbour initiative and coincides with the great work the Town is doing to deliver free, quality, and accessible active programming.
Our Hey Neighbour Team will bring and set up a variety of large outdoor lawn games and equipment for residents to interact with.
