Pitch-In Week in Pelham

April 17-23

Pitch in Week is a week-long Town-wide community cleanup program. Stop by the Meridian Community Centre on April 23 and you’ll be provided all the tools you need to run a cleanup including gloves, masks, recycling bags and specially marked garbage bags. The program helps keep public places in your neighbourhood clean and safe for everyone.

You can host a cleanup event on Town property during the Pitch-In Week including parks, trails, streets, and lots.
