Ottawa Riverkeeper and the regions of the Pacte d’Amitié, MRC de Papineau, MRC d’Argenteuil, and the United Counties of Prescott and Russell, are pleased to unveil plans for another summer of cleanup events across the three regions. Join us on Saturday, June 11th at 9:00am for a shoreline cleanup of the Parc National de Plaisance in Thurso, hosted in collaboration with the MRC de Papineau!
Ottawa Riverkeeper will provide hand sanitizer, gloves and bags for the event. However, we encourage volunteers to bring their own equipment as well. It is crucial to wear sturdy, appropriate footwear and clothing, and, if you wish, to bring a reusable water bottle and bug spray.
WHERE: Parc National de Plaisance in Thurso
WHEN: June 11th 2022, at 9:00 am
REGISTER: Sign up as an individual or as a household on Eventbrite.
In preparation for the event, we encourage you to take a look at our Guide to Solo Shoreline Cleanups for more details on how to participate safely. If you have any questions feel free to email us at communications@ottawariverkeeper.ca
The Pacte d’amitié’s commitment to keeping the Ottawa River clean stretches beyond the municipal boundaries of its constituents to the entirety of the watershed by funding the development of Ottawa Riverkeeper’s shoreline cleanup app, iCleanup. With iCleanup, you can add your own personal cleanups to the watershed community’s total, allowing us to keep working together to keep our rivers clean, even when we’re apart! So, if you can’t make it to any of these cleanups, just head down to your local shoreline for a solo cleanup and record your collection totals in iCleanup!
