In Mississippi Mills, volunteerism isn’t something that happens in the background – it’s the heartbeat of our community.

As the 2023–2027 Council term nears completion, we’re sharing a series of “report cards” by highlighting progress on a major MM2048 initiative: the Mississippi Mills Community Services Master Plan.

Winter’s freeze-thaw cycle and our rainy spring have taken a toll on local roads. We know conditions aren’t ideal right now.

Lanark County Paramedic Service (LCPS) has brought together hospital partners across the county, in partnership with the Mississippi River Health Alliance (MRHA) and Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital (PSFDH), to implement a "Fit-to-Sit" approach in Emergency Departments — designed to improve patient flow, reduce ambulance offload delays, and keep paramedic crews available for 911 calls across the region.

Film crews will be in Almonte this month to shoot scenes for a movie currently using the working titles 'Killer Clowns' or 'The Clown Movie.'

Last night’s Council meeting started with two public meetings about planning.

Every Kid in our Communities of Leeds & Grenville and Lanark County Child & Youth Services Collaborative are excited to invite the community to help recognize and celebrate those making a positive impact in the lives of children and youth.

This year, on Tuesday, May 5, known as “Red Dress Day,” Mississippi Mills All My Relations and Ginawaydaganuc Village invite the community to come together in ceremony, remembrance, reflection, and action for Red Dress Day at the Mississippi Mills Library Public Library, Almonte Branch. This day will honour the thousands of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people, while creating space for learning, dialogue, and community connection.
