Community
One only has to spend a few hours in our neighbourhoods to feel the serenity, take in the beauty and realize the abundance of nature. Nestled in the Township of Oro-Medonte, little more than an hour north of Toronto, lies our little gem surrounded by the Simcoe and Copeland Forests. Downhill and Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, golf or just strolling in the wilderness are activities literally in our backyards. We boast a safe and strong community rich with diversity and bursting with volunteers sustaining the vibrant lifestyle people choose to come to but have difficulty leaving!

Green Sign - House Numbers
Your Municipal House Address System Emergency (or Green) number is extremely important to emergency response units (Police, Fire and Ambulance) in assisting them to locate your property in the event of an emergency. Your MAS number must be installed close to your driveway entrance and must be visible from both directions.
If you require a new MAS number sign, contact the Oro-Medonte Administration office.
