In the busy pace of life, volunteers always make the time to ensure that an activity, program, project, campaign or event is a success. Volunteers utilize their skills, experience and passion for so many individuals and organizations in our town. Much of what we have accomplished is the direct result of the contributions of our local community volunteers. Let's celebrate our everyday heroes and thank them for helping to make our community a wonderful place to live. Last week was National Volunteer Week, be sure to say thank you to a volunteer! ··· Thanks to everyone who participated in the Town of Halton Hills Earth Day Community Clean Up on Sunday (moved from Saturday because of poor weather). Your efforts go a long way in Rick Bonnette keeping our community clean. Special thanks to Councillor Jane Fogal and the Litter-Free Task Force as well as Town staff and sponsors in assisting in the organization of this day. Yesterday the seventh annual Halton Hills 22 Minute Makeover was held. The Town, businesses and schools were asked to do a quick 22-minute litter pickup in their immediate neighbourhood. Don't forget to visit our public works yard from 8 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday, April 30 for free mulch, wood chips and a burger on us! ··· Speaking of litter... of a different kind. Some of our dog owners are forgetting to stoop and scoop after Fido. You are making the rest of us responsible dog owners look bad. Please pick up after your pets! ··· Congratulations to Dianne Penrice on her achieving the Citizen of the Year Award for 2010 for Georgetown.
