The Oxford County 48

Here's what's going on over the next 48 hours in the region

Today: Aqua Fit Shallow Water runs from 8:30am to 9:30am at the Tillsonburg Community Centre. Open to ages 13 and up, this low-impact workout combines cardio, strength and flexibility exercises, with 45 minutes of fitness followed by a 15-minute leisure swim. Parents and caregivers can also bring children aged six months to three years, with flotation seats provided so little ones can splash along while staying within arm's reach. Children participate free of charge.

Today: LEGO Fridays returns to the Burgessville Library from 2pm to 5pm. Kids can drop in during library hours and let their imaginations run wild with the library's LEGO collection. All the bricks are provided — just drop in, and bring your creativity! 

Today: Family Movie Friday brings Big Hero 6 to the Tillsonburg Library at 6pm. The whole family is invited to enjoy the animated adventure about a young robotics genius who teams up with a lovable healthcare robot to stop a mysterious villain. There'll also be colouring activities, snacks and drinks, courtesy of Sobeys Tillsonburg. Registration is required as a family group under an adult's name.

Tomorrow: The Tavistock Library is hosting a free family movie afternoon featuring Toy Story 5 from noon to 1:45pm.

Free snacks, seating is available, and captions will be enabled. The movie is rated G, and no registration is required.

Tomorrow: Family swimming runs from 1pm to 3pm at the Tillsonburg Community Centre. Families can enjoy an afternoon in the pool, with wristbands used to identify younger swimmers and those requiring supervision. Children five and under must remain within arm's reach of a responsible guardian, while children ages six to nine may need supervision depending on their swimming ability. Standard admission fees apply.

Tomorrow: It's Dino-vember at the Otterville Library, with a dinosaur-themed Storytime from 3pm to 4pm. Children can enjoy prehistoric stories and songs, followed by dinosaur-inspired art activities and free play. The program is recommended for ages two to five, but all ages are welcome. It's free to drop in, and no registration is required.
