WATERFRONT CLEAN-UP ON MAY 3

The time has come to make another worthy effort for the environment. Comité d’embellissement Verdun and the Verdun Borough are inviting you to be among the volunteers at the annual waterfront, bike paths and green space clean-up taking place this year on Saturday, May 3. On the island, the meeting point is at 9:30 at the Centre communautaire Elgar (260, rue Elgar). On mainland, participants are gathering at 8: 30 at the Municipal Greenhouses (7000, Boul. LaSalle).

Join the enthusiastic residents and Verdun organizations in this team effort to beautify our waterfront, green space and bike paths. Once again this year, cleaning tools will be supplied and working teams will be formed and dispatched to the different locations. Once the activity is completed, a lunch will be served. There will also be a prize draw. The first 500 volunteers to show up Saturday morning, on May 3, will receive a free t-shirt.

Mayor Claude Trudel, members of the Verdun Borough Council and Verdun MNA Henri-François Gautrin are inviting you to make a concrete contribution to the environment. Join the team of volunteers for the waterfront clean-up, now in its 17th successful edition.
