HVCA Community Trash Cleanup – May 10, 2025, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
With the snow melting away, the community is coming into spring. Our pathways and parks are changing from winter activities to summer, but the enjoyment of the space is being disrupted by the lingering’s of the winter use. Litter. Litter and animal faeces is a constant nuisance along the sidewalks, pathways, and park spaces throughout Hidden Valley and Hanson Ranch. There appears to be an increase of garbage since last fall. The Hidden Valley Community Association is hosting a Community Trash Cleanup. We are looking for you, your family, and neighbours to participate in this activity on May 10 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Meet us at two different locations, The Hidden Hut and The Hanson Ranch Horse Park. We have gloves and garbage bags for everyone participating. Refreshments and food will follow the cleanup at 12:00 pm at both locations. Let’s take care of our community together and keep this neighbourhood a place we can all be proud to call home!
