Gilbey Park Clean-up!
As you know, each spring and fall we take some time and help keep Gilbey park clean. [That's the park right beside the church, for those of you who were wondering.]
Each spring and fall, Jason will let us know when the date is for the clean-up, and different groups of Calvin-ites comes out to clean up the garbage that has accumulated.
Well, it seems that each year there is a sort of awards ceremony held by the city to celebrate all those who help keep Ottawa's parks clean.
Back in February, Jason and his family and I attended that thank you ceremony. We received an award for having the most volunteers help in the clean up of the park. Way to go Calvin Community!!
We also received a prize (they are awarded by draw each year). We seem to win something each year, and this year it was a Tim Horton's coffee maker. It now sits in the basement kitchen, ready to make you a great cup of coffee. : )
In May, another clean up was held.
It was a beautiful day for it.
Simon got right to work.
As did others.
Thanks to all who came out again this year...see you again in the fall. : )
