CUTC on Sep 20th at WJ Bell Rotary Peace Park in Stittsville was the kickoff event for the city-wide campaign.
The Rotary Club of Ottawa-Stittsville is grateful to the community for participating in the Clean Up the Capital event held on Saturday, September 20, 2025 in W.J. Bell Rotary Peace Park.
We had the opportunity to hear speakers from the United Nations and Estonia as well as our Mayor and MP about the history and significance of Clean Up the Capital and in our city and around the world. We were reminded that while it is great to remove trash, it is even better to think about it before disposing of packaging and other items in public spaces.
Then Rotarians and community participants cleaned up the park and surrounding streets, collecting an impressive amount of trash. It was a very pleasant afternoon, and once again, we thank the participants who are helping to make our community cleaner and a nicer place to live.
