The Village Square has been a victim of Vandalism, with 2 broken windows that will cost upwards to $2,000.00 to replace, and a few man hours to try and remove the graffiti from the playground equipment. The board is asking the community to become a Neighbourhood Watch, should you suspect any wrong doings, please contact a board member. Remember, this is your community centre, let’s help to protect it.
The Village of Vankoughnet Wishes to extend a warm Welcome to Sean Kozar and Lisa Matchim who moved from Burlington and to Christine & AJ Francavila who moved into our community from Bracebridge
