There’s a new business open in downtown Chatham.
Park Avenue Baby Boutique is a labour of love for owner Nancy Davey. Her husband passed away earlier this year and the 62-year-old mother of five has focussed on saving for the past two years to open this store.
Davey said the store will carry a variety of clothing, educational toys, cribs and carriages.
Park Avenue Baby Boutique is located at 163 King St. in Chatham.
Learn how to handle food safely
Area residents looking to get a food handler’s certificate have two new locations where they can write the exam this month.
In addition to the Chatham site, Chatham-Kent Public Health is offering drop-in locations around the municipality, and no registration is needed.
The next drop-in will be held in Blenheim at the Blenheim branch of the Chatham-Kent Public Library on Aug. 27 from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
There are various methods to become a certified food handler. Individuals can take A CK Public Health Food Handler Course, an online food safety course, a course with another approved provider, or self-study.
Following any of these options, students must pass the food handler’s exam with 70 per cent or higher to achieve the certificate which is good for five years.
More information can be found on the CKPH website regarding the full exam schedule.
