Once again this year the Rotary Club of Lincoln partnered with Downtown Bench Beamsville to do an Earth Day Cleanup as part of the Rotary Great Lakes Watershed Cleanup initiative. Our Earth Day community cleanup took place earlier today in Downtown Beamsville. This year’s initiative brought together students from West Niagara Secondary School and Jacob Beam Public School, along with the Downtown Bench Beamsville and the Lincoln Rotary, for what turned out to be a record-breaking effort. (approx. 200 volunteers)
In just one hour, participants collected over 188 kilograms (415 lbs.) of waste, surpassing last year’s total by a wide margin and making a visible impact on our downtown core. The event was a great example of local collaboration, environmental action, and civic pride.
