Along with many other communities of the Ottawa area, the Blackburn Community Association holds an annual Spring Clean-Up.  Please volunteer to help us out; we will assign you a small area of Blackburn for litter pick-up plus provide you with garbage bags and latex gloves. The litter and recyclables can be brought back to the Community Hall.  This event runs on April 26th from 9:30 to 11:30 in the morning. Volunteers are then invited to a BBQ (including vegetarian options) to say thanks for all your ‘dirty’ work. All ages are welcome!

Spring Clean-Up is more than just picking up litter—it’s about fostering community pride, protecting our environment, and creating a cleaner, healthier space for everyone to enjoy. So let’s welcome the warmer months with a fresh start and make this year’s Spring Clean-Up the best one yet! Together, we can make a big difference.

If you have any questions or would like to help with the event, contact the BCA Environment Committee at: cleanup@blackburnhamlet.ca.
