Letter to the Editor
Editor,
The Friends of Memorial Park extend their appreciation to the almost 40 volunteers who gave two hours of their time on the first sunny Sunday we’ve had in some time to help with our fifth annual Earth Day clean-up at the park on Sunday, May 4.
You inspire us to work in the community to create new and practical ways to lessen our environmental footprint and improve the health of this amazing green space.
You validate our perception that many people want to contribute in concrete ways to improve and protect the environmental health of our community.
In very practical terms, your volunteer efforts help to protect the most valuable green asset of the municipality: Memorial Park (revenue generator).
To our sponsor, The Meaford Independent, we take your ‘Every Week Should be Earth Week’ editorial to heart; thank you for being there over the past 5 years.
The afternoon was fun; the company superb.
Respectfully.
Lindy Iversen
Chair, Friends of Memorial Park
