ON SATURDAY, APRIL 26th, PITCH-IN FOR A CLEAN, GREEN, LITTER-FREE OAKVILLE

The Museum is participating in the 34th annual Earth Day Clean Up and would like to extend the invitation to all of friends at the Oakville Historical Society. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can all pitch in to clean the areas around the Museum, the OHS and Lakeside Park. Coffee and treats will be provided.

“The 34th annual Earth Day Clean Up of Oakville Nature Sites will take place on Saturday, April 26 beginning at 9 am sharp unless noted at most of the sixty-six nature sites now scheduled for cleaning up,” remarked Stephen Dankowich, co-Founder and Executive Director of the Oakville Community Centre for Peace, Ecology and Human Rights (OCCPEHR).

“Before noon and in just a few hours time on April 26, hundreds and hundreds of Oakville citizens and students will together beautify and transform Oakville’s nature sites! Waste will be removed from our beautiful parks, trails, ravines, woodlots, waterways and lakefront in a concerted community-wide effort to maintain a clean, green, litter-free Oakville,” he exclaimed.

“You will be joining in with people around the world also doing something positive and important for the natural environment in celebration of Earth Day. We look forward to receiving your confirmation of participation,” he added.

The Theme for the 34th annual event encourages everyone to “Pitch-in for a clean, green, litter-free Oakville.”
