One of the most popular locations to cool off at in St. Catharines is Sunset Beach. This week's STC150 post looks at the Port Weller location.

Beginning Tuesday, August 11 Team Rubicon Canada deployed volunteers, know as Greyshirts, to conduct removal of debris, flooring, drywall and other flood damaged items, answering a request for assistance through Ontario Corp to support and assist residents and homeowners through the difficult process of recovery.

With the hot summer days of August, this month’s posts celebrating the story of St. Catharines over time will look at some places in the city where local residents could cool off, such as the Bartlett Park Wading Pool.

Applications open Saturday, Aug. 1 for the City’s Meridian Centre Community Use Program. Registered charities, incorporated non-profit organizations, and minor not-for-profit sport associations serving St. Catharines and Niagara are invited to apply for 12 free suite tickets to 2026-27 IceDogs home games.

Our final instalment in our series on shopping in St. Catharines takes a walk – or drive – over to the Fairview Mall.

The Fairview Mall was a part of a general move in cities across North America towards automobile-focused development, was a fully enclosed, considered an ultra modern shopping experience and one of the first of its kind in Canada.

Following significant rainfall and overland flooding overnight July 27-28, 2026, the City continues to work through its recovery and response alongside its partners.
