NORTH ALGONA WILBERFORCE GREEN STEWARD COMMUNITY CLEAN-UP PROGRAM
North Algona Wilberforce (NAW) is proud of our community and we take pride in keeping it beautiful; many of our residents have, on their own accord, picked up material and waste along roadsides within the Township. We appreciate your efforts, and we thank you for taking pride in our community. This year we would like to support your efforts and to do this we are introducing our Green Steward Community Clean-Up Program.
Anyone wishing to participate may do so by contacting the Township office at 613-628-2080 or email us at office@nalgonawil.com to be registered. Once registered you will be given orange garbage bags (limit of 5 per participant) and gloves. Each orange bag will have a dated yellow waste sticker on it. You will have 30 days from the date on the tag to drop off at either Berndt Road or Shaw Woods Road Transfer Site at no charge. (ONLY ORANGE BAGS WITH TICKET ARE FREE OF CHARGE.) Bags must be dropped off during regular operating hours.
To show our appreciation you will receive a certificate of appreciation, upon completion, for participating in keeping our Township beautiful.
We are also hosting a “Participation Contest” that you will be entered into upon registration. There will be 2 grand prizes awarded, 1 for the adult category (16 years of age and up) and 1 for youth category (16 years of age and under). You will also receive a small gift as a token of our appreciation. The draw will take place during the September 6th Council meeting.
Thank you for participating!
Reminder: if you have not yet used your orange tagged bag the waste sites will only accept them until Saturday August 27th. After this date they will no longer be accepted.
