Six year old, Leo, a true P.A.L. Champion, is inviting P.A.L.s to join him and his Mom on a litter pick in his new home park in Mississauga. It's Mississauga Valley park, 1275 Mississauga Valley Blvd, behind the community centre.
"There is a downhill road to the right of the community centre that takes you to a parking lot near the park entrance where the splash pad is. We will meet there." Call me, Bill, at 416-985-4942 if there is any problem finding us.
As usual, litter pickers will be loaned out and gloves and garbage bags supplied. There is a variety of easy and hard core litter picking available. To be extra safe, wear long pants that can be tucked into socks.
