Throwback to the Georgina Sign Wars of 2021

I was thinking about all the reasons I love to call the Town of Georgina home and I was reminded that three years ago, we witnessed a burst of community spirit with the advent of #SignWars among local businesses.

My memory may be wrong, but I believe it all began with Keswick Home Hardware's cheeky sign aimed at the Queensway Marketplace. Soon, the streets were adorned with witty slogans and colorful displays as businesses engaged in a playful battle of signage.

And like the good sports that they are, The Queensway Marketplace joined the fray, playfully calling out Connor's Music in the process. It was a testament to the friendly rivalry that characterized the #SignWars, showcasing the community's lighthearted and inclusive spirit.

True to form, Connor's Music didn't "miss a beat" with their comeback. It was a harmonious exchange that resonated throughout the town, adding another layer of fun to the spirited #SignWars.

Meanwhile, Home Hardware wasn't quite finished with Queensway Marketplace either. With a mischievous grin, their next sign was a playful jab that kept the friendly rivalry alive and the community amused.

It just kept getting better 

Connors music "claps back" one more time at the marketplace!

Meanwhile on the other side of town there are shots fired from the Keswick Presbyterian Church

You have to understand something about the Georgina Garden Centre though, their sign game is strong!

I'm sure I am missing someone here, so feel free to leave a comment if you know of any others, but I'll leave you with one more gem from the Keswick Presbyterian Church. It was a heartwarming reminder that in Georgina, community spirit knows no bounds.

The 2021 Georgina Sign Wars is just one more reason why I love calling the Town of Georgina home. If you, or someone you know, is seeking a laid-back lakeside community that knows how to have a good time, let's connect! Whether it's enjoying the scenic views of Lake Simcoe or joining in on the local festivities, Georgina offers a charming blend of relaxation and entertainment that's hard to resist. Reach out, and let's make Georgina your new home sweet home.
