Southern Manitoban group challenging Northern communities to clean up

 

A southern Manitoba group dedicated to a greener planet is holding their annual Northern and First Nation Spring Clean Up.

 

The Winnipeg-based Green Action Centre is putting the challenge out to northern and First Nations communities in Manitoba for the sixth year in a row to run a community clean up.

 

Once registered, members of the community must organize a community clean up between May 1st and June 30th. At the end of the clean up, they will take their recyclables to their nearest Material Recovery Facility and get a weigh ticket to send back to Green Action Centre.

 

There’s a grand prize of a celebratory barbeque for the winning community, as well as two individual prizes of $100 to be won.

 

For more information, or to register for the clean up, visit GreenActionCentre.ca.
