Past Campaigns

April 29, 2023 - Annual Community Clean Up

THE RESULTS ARE IN!

With a trifecta of bad weather (cold, rain and wind) we are literally "blown away" by the support of our community! A grand total of 145 residents and students braved the elements and collected 1000 pounds of garbage (excluding the dishwasher!). You read that right, approx 1000 pounds of windblown, soaked litter, that is no longer on the ground in Oak Ridges!

The Oak Ridges Lions Club asked you to help us better the environment and save our community for future generations to enjoy, and you delivered! To our generous sponsors, KIND, Rob's No Frills, and Tim Hortons Oak Ridges, along with the City of Richmond Hill and TRCA, as well as ALL the volunteers, thank you.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
