In anticipation of the stay-at-home order, the Rotary Club of Grimsby in concert with its sister Rotary Clubs is immediately pausing the recruitment of volunteers for the West Niagara Great Lakes Watershed Cleanup for Saturday, April 24th. Rotary continues to be committed to our environment, however choosing an alternate date is not possible at this time.
The safety of our community members is paramount and Government protocols guide our actions.
We have accomplished a lot planning for this event in a Grey/shutdown environment. What is most important now, is stopping Covid-19 in its tracks. We are doing our part by pausing the West Niagara portion of the Great Lakes Watershed Cleanup.
Over 15 partner organizations, all four governments within the West Niagara area and numerous service clubs and community groups have joined in our efforts. We thank them and appreciate their continued support and partnership.
Over the next week, we will share educational information about the importance of our watershed and what everyone of us can do, every day, to help keep our watersheds clean.
Please check back to learn what is possible on an individual basis and, when in the future, we may be able to do something as a broader community.
