Orillia Warming Centre Open to Severn Residents

The Relief Centre at the Orillia Recreation Centre (255 West Street South, Orillia) is open for Township of Severn residents.  The Relief Centre is open until 9 p.m. today (March 31). Guests must register by 9 p.m. if they wish to stay overnight. The centre offers a warm, safe space, charging stations (priority for medical devices), access to restrooms, and light refreshments.  For updates, please visit the City of Orillia website at orillia.ca.

As Hydro One and their contractors continue to work on restoring hydro to all residents within the Township, please remember to check on your neighbours.  This friendly gesture, can help to brighten someone's day.

The Washago Community Centre remains closed until power is restored to the area.  To maintain water and wastewater services to residents on Township services, all Township generators have been diverted to the water and wastewater facilities.  The use of the generators are required to keep water and wastewater equipment running so it stays at its pre-ice storm safety levels and remains safe for you and your family.
