Thank you, West Springs Cougar Ridge!
Thanks to you we had a very successful recycling event on June 16, serving 524 vehicles! Our previous record was 450 vehicles. This was the first time that we filled four city packer trucks (in previous years we filled three).
Besides that, we filled a large bin with recycling metals, a truck of goods for the Women in Need society, a lot of electronic items for SCRI, several bikes for Bikes for Cameron, and quite a few mattresses/child car seats were donated to Re-Matt.
A huge thank you to the many volunteers from the West Springs Cougar Ridge Community Association and the Coach Hill, Patterson Heights Community Association who worked in the cold and rainy weather!
Also, thank you Tim Hortons on 85 Street, who provided free coffee and donuts to volunteers and to the Calgary French & International School, who every year generously offer the use of their school’s parking lot for our event.
We collected $1,688.15 in donations and several boxes of non-perishable food for the Calgary Food Bank.
Thanks again for everyone’s support in making this a successful event!
