News in Georgetown

Rick-Bonnette-60The Town of Halton Hills, its Council and staff would like to extend a  heartfelt thank you to the volunteers in our community who continue to give of themselves to the many worthwhile causes. 
In the busy pace of life volunteers always make the time to ensure that an activity, program, project, campaign or event is a success. Volunteers utilize their skills, experience and passion for so many individuals and organizations in our Town. Much of what we have accomplished is the direct result of the contributions of our local community volunteers.

Let’s celebrate our everyday heroes and thank them for helping to make our community a wonderful place to live. This National Volunteer Week, be sure to say thank you to a volunteer!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Town of Halton Hills Earth Day Community Clean Up on Saturday April 16th.  Your efforts go along way in keeping our community clean.  Special thanks to Councillor Jane Fogal and the litter free committee as well as Town staff and sponsors in assisting in the organization of this day. 

Please join us tomorrow, Wednesday April 20th for the 7th Annual Halton Hills 22 Minute Makeover.  The Town, businesses and schools are asked to do a quick 22 minute litter pick up in their immediate neighbourhood. Free bags and gloves are available.  Call 905.873.2601 ext. 2609 for more information.

And don’t forget to visit our public works yard from 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM on Saturday April 30th for free mulch, wood chips and a burger on us!

Speaking of litter…of a different kind.  Some of our dog owners are forgetting to stoop and scoop after FIDO.  You are making the rest of us responsible dog owners look bad.  Please pick up after your pets!
