October 25th is the 298th day of 2021. There are 67 days remaining until the end of the year.

Capacity limits have loosened across Ontario.

Starting this morning, places that require proof of vaccination, like restaurants, gyms, and casinos will no longer have to follow distancing or capacity limitations. This does not include places like nightclubs, strip clubs, or wedding receptions where dancing is permitted. These facilities will continue to have capacity limits until November 15, 2021.

Other public health measures, like requiring proof of vaccination and masking, could be lifted after the holidays if public health indicators remain stable.

The Salvation Army Chatham-Kent will begin the Distribution Period for Operation Cover Up.

If you are in need of a warm coat for this Winter, coupons can be picked up beginning today at The Salvation Army Family Services in Blenheim, Chatham, Ridgetown and Wallaceburg and the Tilbury Information & Help Centre.

Coupons for coats will be available until November 13th.

The Atlanta Braves will play the Houston Astros in MLB’s World Series.

The Braves will be going for their first Series title since 1995. Atlanta lost four World Series in the 90s and the NFL Falcons blew a 28-3 lead in the 2017 Super Bowl. The ‘95 Braves remain the city’s only championship in the four major sports leagues.

The Astros won the World Series in 2017, it’s their third appearance in the finals in the last 5 years.

Game One is Tuesday at 8pm on Fox or Sportsnet.

The Beer Mile World Classic took place Saturday in Manchester, England.

A new world-record time 4:28.1 was set by Canada’s Corey Bellemore, who took home his third world title. He’s the first person to ever complete the beer mile in under 4:30.

Bellemore is from Tecumseh and ran for the University of Windsor.

Kraft Macaroni & Cheese has launched a new fan club; It’s called the Kraft Flvrs Club.

Members can win new products, and get them through the mail before they hit stores. And the first one drops today.

They’re launching a new line of Flavor Boost packets next year that you add to your mac-and-cheese to give it a secondary flavor. The first three are buffalo, pizza, and ranch. And they’re giving away around 650 packets of the buffalo flavor today. It also comes with a football jersey that says “Buffalo” on it.

You have to sign up for the fan club at KraftFLVRS.com. Then look for an announcement on social media, and go back to their website to see if you won. It’s a first-come-first serve thing, so you have to be fast.

If you don’t get the buffalo flavor today, they’ll be doing the same thing with ranch on Thursday and pizza next Tuesday. The ranch flavor comes with a hoodie, and the pizza flavor comes with a windbreaker.
