Date: Sunday, September 22, 2024
Time: 9:00AM – 1:30PM
Hosted by the Chaparral Community Association. Community cleanup events save residents a trip to the landfill for items that do not fit in their waste and recycling carts, or for residents who do not have access to cart service.
This service is free of charge to all Calgarians. Simply bring any of the accepted items to the Lake Chaparral Overflow Parking Lot on September 22nd, between 9:00 am and 1:30 pm, where a group of volunteers will direct and assist in recycling/discarding those materials.
