Park Cleanup was a Success!

Many thanks to all who came out this morning to clean the park. Between all of the kids, adults and even a few dogs, the park was cleaned in record time!




Special thanks to Frank Ruffalo and staff from JJP Community Centre for your help in getting the word out, ordering gloves and garbage bags, and lending a hand this morning. 

A record 290 community groups registered to clean their parks and neighbourhoods this weekend as part of Clean Toronto Together, in addition to the hundreds of school and corporate groups who ran cleanups over the last few days. Click through read more, or find a cleanup near you!
