Pitch-In Week
It's that time of year again for groups, organizations, business, friends and neighbours to start thinking about getting together to clean up Prince Albert and participate in the annual litter pick up Pitch-In Week. The 2021 Pitch-In campaign has been set for Monday May 3, to Saturday May 8 this year.
People are strongly encouraged to get a group together and register with Pitch-In Canada. By registering groups can get bags shipped for free for their event.
Groups can register by visiting http://pitch-in.ca/. The national organization maps events across Canada. By registering, you can have free Pitch-In bags shipped to you directly.
Please also see the City's website for more details on what to do when you find a needle during your clean-up.
