NIAGARA PEOPLE • PLACES • EXPERIENCES

Welcome to Issue Three

Too Groovy is a new lifestyle magazine celebrating the people, businesses, attractions and community projects that give Niagara its character.

Welcome to Too Groovy Issue 3!

Real People. Real Stories. Real Niagara.

The November 2026 edition of Too Groovy Magazine has arrived — and we’re celebrating the personalities, passions, and people who make our communities extraordinary!

At Too Groovy, we believe everyone has a story worth telling. Sometimes it’s a story of determination and success. Sometimes it’s about family, friendship, creativity, or giving back. And sometimes it’s simply about finding a little humour in a world that takes itself far too seriously.

Our third issue brings together three fascinating Niagara personalities whose experiences remind us that life is meant to be lived with enthusiasm, purpose, and a little bit of groove!

What’s Inside Issue 3?

🍕 Joe Gonzalez — One Man, Three Hats, Plenty of Toppings!

Our Cover Story | Pages 4–11

Meet Joe Gonzalez, the man behind Right Choice Happenings Realty, the popular Pizza Review Joe, and Wainfleet’s newest municipal councillor.

From growing up on a strawberry farm to building a successful real estate business, reviewing more than a thousand pizzas, and earning the trust of voters, Joe shares his experiences, his philosophy on success, and his commitment to the community he calls home.

It’s an entertaining and personal look at a man who knows that success isn’t just about business — it’s about relationships.

🏒 Gerry Boley — The Art of Making People Smile

Culture & Community | Pages 13–22

What happens when you combine a 41-page book about classroom humour, a hockey team dressed as nuns, Canadian aviation history, and an imagination that refuses to slow down?

You get Gerry Boley!

Educator, humourist, writer, and creator of the Missing Arrow Awards, Gerry has spent decades demonstrating that laughter can educate, inspire, and bring people together.

Discover the Ladies in Black charity hockey team, his Pucks4Peace concept, his classroom adventures, and his continuing celebration of Canadian achievements.

Gerry reminds us that humour isn’t merely entertainment — it can be a powerful tool for making a difference.

🏁 Jason Fontaine — Family in the Fast Lane

Motorsport & Family | Pages 24–30

Racing isn’t simply about horsepower, speed, or crossing the finish line first. For Niagara race car driver Jason Fontaine, it’s about family, dedication, and the people who make every lap possible.

Go behind the scenes with Jason and his family as they share the excitement, challenges, sacrifices, and unforgettable experiences of life in motorsports.

It’s a story of determination, family bonds, and a passion for racing that runs far deeper than the track.

❤️ Giving Back to Niagara

This issue also celebrates 10 years of the Toolbox Project Niagara, an organization dedicated to supporting people experiencing homelessness through compassion, practical assistance, and community involvement.

Because being Too Groovy also means caring about the people around us.

A Message from the Publisher

Every edition of Too Groovy is an opportunity to introduce our readers to people they may know by name but whose remarkable stories they have never fully heard.

Our magazine isn’t about celebrities or headlines alone. It’s about the neighbours, entrepreneurs, entertainers, athletes, volunteers, and creative thinkers who help shape our communities.

We invite you to read Issue 3, share it with friends, support the businesses and organizations featured in its pages, and tell us about someone whose story deserves to be told next.

Thank you for being part of the Too Groovy community. We’re just getting started!
