Optimist Club of  Keswick non profit service club serving The Town of Georgina
[email protected] As creative people, we constantly seek innovative ways to help our neighbors.

Our Optimist Club is composed of dynamic, motivated individuals who use their life skills to benefit their community’s needs, especially the needs of our youth. Our club enjoys autonomy, elects its Board of Directors and therefore has the opportunity to take the necessary decisions concerning arising issues. This authority also allows us to create and implement programs specific to the needs of youth in our community. We are then able to organize fundraisers that will help the community’s youth.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS! 🚨

CARROT SHORTAGE HITS GEORGINA!

October 28, 2026 | Georgina, Ontario

Residents of Georgina are being warned of a sudden and mysterious carrot shortage following reports of three reindeer spotted at local grocery stores.

Security footage captured earlier this morning shows the three reindeer purchasing large quantities of carrots.

7:42 AM – Zher's Grocery Store: Three reindeer were caught on camera filling a shopping cart with carrots.

8:30 AM – Freshco: The same suspects were spotted continuing their carrot shopping spree, leaving shelves nearly empty.

LATEST DEVELOPMENT: Witnesses report seeing the trio loading their enormous carrot haul into the back of a blue MINI Countryman before fleeing the scene.

Local residents are being urged to remain calm and secure any carrots they may have at home.

Authorities believe the suspects may be stockpiling carrots in preparation for Christmas.

🥕 PUBLIC WARNING: Do not leave carrots or carrot cake unattended!

The big question remains: Where will these three carrot-crazed reindeer strike next?
