Super Spring Cleanup Week

Peterborough Mayor Dianne Therrien Proclaims April 22-29, 2022 Rotary Super Spring Clean-Up Week

For the past 14 years, the three area Rotary Clubs have been busy organizing the Super Spring Clean Up. In appreciation of the work, Peterborough Mayor Dianne Therrien has declared April 22nd to 29th 2022 as Rotary Super Spring Clean-Up Week.

The Rotary Clubs of Peterborough encourage everyone within the community to become a steward and protector of the environment by taking part in a city-wide garbage cleanup.

We encourage individuals to join or organize small groups to clean up within their neighborhoods to get rid of the unsightly garbage accumulated throughout the winter and over the years.

For Garbage disposal: please call the City Public works hotline at 705 745 1386 or email at pubworks@peterborough.ca

New data shows that plastic particles are now found in all waters on our planet, harming all living beings for years to come. It is only getting worse. We must not let this happen to our children and their children.

Thank you for getting involved, caring about the environment and making Peterborough a cleaner place to live.
