• If you are a Norfolk County Recreation Affiliated Organization, you will fill out your permits

accordingly. Rental fees will apply, but are currently subsidized based on the type of rental

Financial Assistance for Sport, Art and Dance

Participating in sport is a part of a healthy lifestyle. Having fun through recreation can help kids make new friends, develop leadership skills, deal with stress, increase their physical activity levels and improve their overall health. When families face financial difficulties, registration fees are often the first to be cut from their budgets.

Norfolk County Recreation Division has partnered with two organizations that can assist families who are experiencing financial shortfalls. Funds are available for children ages 4 to 18 years.

Canadian Tire Jump Start and Norfolk KidSport are local funding organizations that can help your child be part of the fun and learning. Money is available for registration fees or equipment.

• Funding available for incomes lower than $40,000 • An application form must be filled out for each child • Please allow 3 weeks for approvals • All applications need supporting documentation before funding can be approved.

Applications can be picked up at the Simcoe Recreation Centre or by contacting Lisa Girard Ext. 2227 or lisa.girard@norfolkcounty.ca

Vandalism Affects Us All

Senseless acts of vandalism and criminal activities in your Parks & Facilities, within your County trails & forests, at your Cemeteries cost the taxpayers thousands of dollars each year and can create unattractive and unsafe conditions for residents and visitors to our community. Help your County staff and community volunteers keep these areas in safe and attractive condition.

When senseless vandalism or criminal acts occur on county property it impacts YOU! These costs are the taxpayers, so when you see activities occurring on county property or

property owned and maintained by volunteers for the good of the community, it is YOUR PROPERTY - PROTECT IT BY REPORTING IT! to the Community Services Department at (519) 426-5999 Ext. 0.

By taking ownership and pride in our community we need to take a 0% TOLERANCE APPROACH so we have $0 spent on vandalism and criminal acts.

Forest Conservation Services Call before you cut!

Nestled in the heart of Canada’s Carolinian Forest, Norfolk County boasts some of the highest ecological diversity in Canada.

Norfolk County’s Forest Conservation By-law is in place to help protect one of our most valuable natural resources.

If you would like to: • Harvest trees from your woodlot • Report potential violations of the Forest Conservation By-law • Seek advice and guidance towards proper stewardship of your woodlot Please contact Norfolk County’s Forest Conservation Services at Ext. 2224

For additional information and opportunities to market your forest products, woodlot owners are encouraged to join the Norfolk Woodlot Owners Association.

For more information please visit: www.norfolkwoodlots.com

Forestry staff is available to assist you with your forest management objectives and to respond to calls of illegal harvesting activities.

Urban Forestry Services

Norfolk County is committed to the protection and improvement of our urban forest. Trees are a significant part of a healthy and liveable community.

Our community trees are an important source of shade, they reduce air pollution, increase property values, provide pollinator habitat, bird habitat, and improve our quality of life.

Community trees are all trees located within Norfolk County road allowance, parks, urban ravines, cemeteries, or trails.

Please contact the Norfolk County Arborist for inquiries to the following services: • NC tree planting program • Inspection of the health or structural

condition of a community tree • Removal or destruction of a community tree The Norfolk County Arborist may be reached at (519) 426-5999 ext. 2245 If there is an emergency involving a fallen tree or broken branches impacting a roadway please contact: Public Works & Environmental Services (519) 582-2100.

Parks, Forestry & Trails

Norfolk’s forests have played an integral role in the evolution of the County from pioneer status to a modern and vibrant agricultural centre. The natural resource sector, such as timber operations, is second in economic importance to agriculture.

Rabbit and Pheasant Hunting Opportunities The hunting of Rabbit and Pheasant in Norfolk County requires a Provincial Small Game License and a Norfolk County Rabbit and Pheasant License. Rabbit and Pheasant Licenses can be

Norfolk Cemeteries

purchased at any Norfolk County Municipal Office or a number of local businesses across Norfolk.

Visit www.norfolkcounty.ca for more information about hunting opportunities.

Norfolk County manages, directly and through the dedicated resources of various community Cemetery Boards, a diverse range of active public urban and rural cemeteries, as well as a multitude of abandoned cemeteries.

What if I cannot sell these grave(s)?

Norfolk County may purchase these grave(s) back. A Cemetery Board, whether public or private are not obliged to purchase any grave(s) back.

My parents purchased 4 graves; 2 for themselves and two for my spouse and I at Oakwood Cemetery, Simcoe. I have made other arrangements to be interred elsewhere - can I sell the graves set aside for my spouse and I?

Maps are available for all Norfolk County cemeteries at www.norfolkcounty.ca/living/birth-marriage-anddeath/cemeteries/

Possibly - but first you need to contact the Cemetery Board, in this case Norfolk County Cemeteries Division - you would be required to first document that these graves are yours to sell, and if you want to sell them privately, you need a letter from the County authorizing such, which would detail the present value of the grave(s) to potential buyers.

You cannot sell grave(s) for more than the present value.

Graves that have been sold in multiples - which already have an interment or a monument erected, cannot be sold.

Winter Access - Norfolk County Cemetery Access & Roads are not routinely maintained during winter months. Please use at your own risk.
