Welcome Lois H., as another of our enthusiastic
Adopt-a-Block volunteers.
Lois has graciously taken on both sides of the Island
Highway from the corner of Simms Road to the corner of Erickson Road plus the
parks and lots between. She and I met the other day and exchanged stories of
what it is like to remove the trash left behind by others from the sidewalks,
boulevards and seemingly abandoned properties.
“The garbage tongs will help me pick up those things that I
was fearful of retrieving with my bare hands,” she said. “So, where do I dump
the garbage?”
“Let me walk your route with you and we’ll determine the
best place to leave the rubbish we collect,” I said.
We agreed that providing this service to our community is
our way of making the City we care for look great. We also agreed that the
City needs more concrete garbage containers – a topic to bring up with the City
of Campbell River Parks and Recreation Department.
