BOTTLE DRIVE - September 9th

The ACE Team will be hosting a bottle drive on September 9th starting at 5:30pm. All proceeds will be donated to the Heritage Park X-treme Makeover, which is happening on September 25, 2010.

We will be sending trucks around to farms and acreages who are within 3 kilometers of the town limits. So if your shed or old grainery is full of bottles and cans now is the time to clean them out and donate to a worthy cause at the same time.

For those of you who would like to donate their bottles, but live farther than 3 kilometers from town please take them to the Killam Bottle Depot. Please specify that they are to be donated to the Ace Committee.

Thank you so much for your support!!
