In Tiny, an array of smaller communities and hamlets enhance the sense of community; Lafontaine in the north adds a Francophone flair, with its music and cultural events, particularly le Festival de Loup in the summer. As well as their own festivals, Tiny Township residents enjoy other events, festivals and presentations in nearby north Simcoe Communities, including the butter tart festival in Midland and Winterama in Penetanguishene. Although this is the most northerly community, residents are never far from the action on the water, in the town, or a short drive away.

The township was named in 1822 after a pet dog of Lady Sarah Maitland, who was the wife of Sir Peregrine Maitland, Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada. The surrounding township of Tay was also named after a pet dog of Sarah Maitland.
