Sandy Latchford, chair of Pitch-In Prince Edward CHEERS! everyone who participated in this year’s Earth Day event.
“Several kilometers of ditches were cleaned, more than 150 rain barrels were sold and hundreds of pounds of electronic waste were collected,” she said. “A special thank you to our community partners – working together does make a difference.
Above, Latchford with Randy Claxton and Brian Biddle. Kiwanis Club of Picton members and friends, the County Sustainability Group, Prince Edward Collegiate Institute and Tim Hortons were among this year’s partners.
Some County residents continued collection Sunday. Agnes Toews Andrews, of The Alternate Ark Centre, invited helping hands to clean up garbage found amongst the flowers at Point Petre. Six bags of garbage were removed. Volunteers enjoyed a tofu dog roast and marshmallows over a fire afterward. CHEERS! she notes, to the kind contribution of dry maple firewood, from Allan, on Cty Rd. 18.
