Crestmont Community Cleanup Sunday Sept 16

Spring Clean-upIts that time of year again where we line up the city waste services to take away all the garbage and unwanted items in our community.  Come on out Sunday September 16th from 9am – 2pm and join us for this fun event and clean up the community.

The event takes place at the Crestmont Hall and we will supply bags pick-up sticks and safety equipment and there will be a BBQ afterwards for everyone who helps out.

In addition you can empty out all the crap in your garage and basement that you have been meaning to take to the dump.  Have you had a recent renovation?  Do you have a pile of junk in your yard you need to get rid of?  How about that major pruning and yard clean-up you did or are planning to do?

Here is a link to the POSTER that shows what you can and can not bring.  Basically we CANNOT accept PAINT, CHEMICALS, FUELS or FUEL CONTAINERS, and any other DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES, but everything else from old furniture to renovation waste.  We will even have an electronics recycler on site to take away old TV sets, computers, phones, etc.

President: Andrew Shorter

Secretary: Catherine Garry

Vice President: Jason Simms

Treasurer: Shahid Naqi

Director: Don Noakes

Director: Janet Shygera

Director: Bill Holland

Director: Jeannette Holland

Thank you to Catherine, one of the founders of the association, for continuing with her role as Secretary for a third term.  Your dedication and efforts are greatly appreciated.

On behalf of the 2011 board I would like to congratulate these people for offering their volunteer time to make a difference in our community and I look forward to working with them in 2012.  By the enthusiasm I have seen from this group already, I think we will all see some exciting things happening in the coming months.

Thank You,

Al Del Degan
