Help keep Severn green and growing
Severn, Ontario: Township of Severn has proclaimed April 2024 as Earth Month and is again taking part in Pitch-In Week, Canada's largest environmental improvement campaign. Pitch-In Week is a great opportunity for residents, students, or community groups to get together and clean up our community.
In 2023, 583 volunteers filled 116 yellow Pitch-in bags, removing over 100 pounds of litter from our local roads, trails, and waterways.
Get involved in Pitch-in Week happening April 22 to 28 by signing up individually, with your household, family, school, or community group.
To register:
- complete the form at severn.ca/pitchin
- pick up your Pitch-in supplies (gloves and blue bags) at our Administration Office (1024 Hurlwood Lane, Severn) Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
- help us find your Pitch-in waste bags for collection by placing them safely on roadsides for pickup on Monday, April 29
Please note, only blue waste bags provided by the Township will be picked up.
"I would like to offer a special thank you to those in Severn that continue to go above and beyond by leading their own individual and community clean-ups throughout the year, and during Pitch-in Week. Your leadership shows that you deeply care about your community and encourages others to take similar actions to protect our environment and keep Severn beautiful."
-Mayor Mike Burkett
