**************************
The Town of BWG is happy to share that Community Clean-up Week is returning this Fall. This is a great opportunity for residents to come together to help tackle waste and support a clean and healthy community.
Community Clean-up Week will take place from Monday, Oct. 7 to Sunday, Oct. 13, 2024. Throughout the week, and at their convenience, we welcome residents to participate by picking up a clean-up kit and collecting waste around their neighboUrhoods.
The clean-up kits include garbage bags, gloves, hand sanitizer, instructions, and safety tips. Clean-up kits will be available on a first come, first served basis with no registration required. Participants can collect their kits at the BWG Leisure Centre (471 West Park Ave.), starting Wednesday, October 2, 2024, while supplies last. Pick-up is available during our regular hours of operation (Monday-Friday between 6:00 am - 10:00 pm and Saturday-Sunday from 7:30 am - 5:00 pm).
“Community Clean-up Week is a great way for our community to come together to ensure a healthy and litter free BWG. Participating in this event is not just about picking up litter, it's about building connections, fostering pride in our environment, and creating a brighter, cleaner future within the community. I encourage everyone to do their part and get involved in the fall Community Clean-up.” – Mayor James Leduc
Residents are encouraged to tackle public parks, greenspaces, or trails in BWG; and can participate at any time throughout the week (October 7-13, 2024). Please keep safety top of mind when selecting a day, time, and location, and as you collect waste.
We would love to see your before and after photos and/or videos. Show your support and participation by tagging @townofBWG and using the hashtag #BWGCommunityCleanUp.
We would also like to thank Perfect SZN Bradford, who have graciously donated coupons for the kits.
