Reid's Heritage Homes hosted the official ground breaking ceremony for Sunrise Grove, in Fergus!
October 25th, 2024
Officials from Reid’s Heritage Homes, the builder of the townhouse development behind the New to You store at 950 St. David St. N., held a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the beginning of construction at the site they are calling Sunrise Grove.
Jennifer Muller, VP of sales, marketing and culture at Reid’s Heritage Homes, explained the site is made up of 112 total units of stacked townhouse developments with four different floor plan options with an aim to keep it affordable.
“It’s really important for us to make sure that this is something that anyone can purchase so we’re really ensuring that young families, young professionals, retirees, empty nesters,” Muller said. “With respect to our price point, that was the biggest factor to make sure that we were in the fives, that people could get into a home with at least two bedrooms.”
People seemed to have flocked to this development as it is almost sold out. Muller said they have 108 firm deals but they have held back four units to provide others an opportunity to buy there down the line.

Orin Reid Memorial Golf Tournament
August 1, 2019
Since its inception 18 years ago, the Orin Reid Memorial Golf Tournament has raised over $1,000,000 in support of local charities, hospitals and children in need. This is all thanks to our golfers and our sponsors. We simply could not do it with out you!
The money we raise at this tournament always goes directly back into the communities we build in, and this year our focus is in support of Mental Health. Guelph General Hospital cared for more than 63,000 patients in its Emergency Department (ED) last year, in a space designed for 45,000. In fact, over the past five years, there has been a 37% increase in visits related to mental health and addictions. The Hospital has a plan to transform the care it is able to provide these patients.
Part of the plan will see the Hospital, working together with community partners, create new space for Emergency Mental Health Outpatient services. These services will act like a ‘step-down’ unit, providing prompt and short-term support, treatment and monitoring for people who don’t need to be admitted for care, but do need intensive follow-up. The services mean they go home feeling safe and supported, and reduces the likelihood that they come back to the ED.
We are excited to work with our community to improve life for those struggling with mental health and addictions issues.
Thank you again to all of our sponsors and golfers for joining us this year and for helping us to make a difference!
