The Village of Atholville would like to thank everyone present at the lauching of our cultural policy that took place June 21, 2022 at the Alma Hall in Atholville. We strongly believe that the cultural policy will have a positive impact on the development of our community, as well as the surrounding one.

• Community masks are to be worn in public;
• Respect physical distancing;
• Trick-or-treating is limited to your single household only;
• Wash or sanitize hands before and after trick-or-treating

For the people who do the distribution:

• Find a way to warn children if you don't want to give out treats (note on the door, door locked, lights out, etc.);
• Find creative ways to hand out treats to facilitate distribution and limit contact (basket with individual bags of candy outside by the door, etc.);
• Maintain a distance of at least 2 metres.

We are currently going through a dry period, the little amount a rain fallen in the last few weeks is not enough and our wells are affected. It is for this reason that all residents of Atholville area are requested to limit water consumption to personal use only and must abstain from using water for

- watering lawns;

- washing vehicle or driveways;

- fill pool;

- or any other non-personal use

Manual watering of gardens and flowers only are permitted.

These preventive measures aim to guarantee the supply of drinking water and fire protection during this dry period.
