There’s a new pharmacy in Norwood. Paul’s Norwood Pharmasave opened recently at 17 Spruce St.

They offer free local delivery, after-hours emergency service, quick prescription transfers, immunizations, home healthcare supplies and equipment, and more. Their goal is to be more than just your local pharmacy, they strive for excellent patient care. Drop by and see the new space and you could win some giveaways.

Bonnie Clark, Warden of the County of Peterborough and Deputy Mayor of the Township of Otonabee-South Monaghan, will be addressing the business community at a special Warden’s Breakfast hosted by the Peterborough and the Kawarthas Chamber of Commerce.

The breakfast will be at Lang Pioneer Village on April 23 from 8 – 10 a.m. and will feature special guest Meredith Stavelely-Watson from the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus talking about their 7 in 7+ regional housing plan. Get your tickets at pkchamber.ca.
