We need to clean up the community of Erlton. People are just going back to their houses in this community and they are in great need of help. They need a lot of man power, trucks, and pumps. They will really appreciate if you can give them a hand this long weekend. Please be prepared for demolition work. The basements have to be torn down.

I will like to stress the importance of trucks and pumps since many of these available machinery is already in use in other locations around the city. Additionally, many of the those who were providing the truck/garbage services are leaving the city during the long weekend and won’t be able to help.

Date: Saturday, June 29th and Sunday, June 30th

Location: 4510 Macleod Trail South

Time: 11:00am

Please bring:

• Shovels
• Rubber boots or steel-toe shoes.
• Bug Spray
• Sunscreen or Hat
• Pumps
• Trucks
• Flashlights

Looking for a group to team up and initially focus on the pathway & tend to the shrubs and plants that amazingly remained after the force of water plowed over them, they need TLC. Surrounding Poppy Plaza on the east side of Louise Bridge needs some cleaning up mostly sweeping as I can see. Lower paths need branches, roots cleaned up and removed. Honestly a lot of TLC and a little labor. Once the east bound path to say Peace bridge is in better shape we could locate to the west side of the Louise bridge, or pursue both sides, depending on volunteers and further assessment.

Date:  Saturday, June 29

Time: 10 a.m.

Location: Poppy Plaza on Memorial Dr. East side of bridge.

Supplies: Work gloves, boots or runners, brooms, a few small shovels/gardening tools. Maybe safety vest or bright coloured T shirts.

Please bring bug spray, sunscreen, your own snacks and a hat.
