How the Mill Creek Clean-Up will work this year:
Take a few minutes this week to pick up trash in the ravine. Do so individually or with members of your household. Please obey social distancing guidelines.
Pick up supplies (gloves, garbage bags and "trash pick-up sticks") from outside one of two homes:
Pick up cleaning supplies at 9619 78 Ave.
Pick up cleaning supplies at 9150 73 Ave.
Please return the "trash pick up sticks" after use to be sanitized and redeployed. We have a limited number available.
Focus your attention on the areas south of the Mill Creek Pool parking lot. (The Strathcona Community League is doing north of the pool.)
Do not leave the full garbage bags on the side of the trail. Please dispose of them in nearest garbage bin—if possible take them home to put out with your own garbage.
If you find something that is too large to go into a garbage bin or requires more than one person to dispose of, call 3-1-1 to alert the city.
If you find that a garbage bin that is overloaded, please call 3-1-1 to alert the city as well.
Post a picture of you and your trash in the Facebook Event to be entered for the chance to win a prize: https://www.facebook.com/events/s/annual-mill-creek-cleanup/898720170581472/
