Join in and help clean up your neighbourhood
It’s our third year participating in Cleaning the Capital to make our neighbourhood a cleaner and safer place to live and play. Cleaning the Capital is a city-wide cleanup that occurs in the spring and fall of every year, bringing Ottawa residents together as a community to help clean litter from our public spaces.
Join your neighbours from April 17 to May 2 and help make the Westboro Beach Community a little bit cleaner.
Check out the schedule, instructions and SIGN UP!
