Agenda

Roadside Cleanup September 24, 2022

The bi-annual BMLAA Roadside clean up will be held Saturday, September 24th at 9am.  Normally it only takes an hour to complete a section depending on how fast the group moves and how many in the party.  This is a FUN event and a great way to teach your family how to care about the environment.  Plus, it’s always interesting to see what is in the ditches on Hwy 37.  🙂  Lastly, we are looking for some NEW volunteers to help.  We’d love to see some different families if your schedule allows.  

Please meet at the corner of Hwy 37 and Red Top Road.  Vests and garbage bags will be supplied.  Please bring gloves.

Thank you in advance and to the LaFonds who spearhead this event.

Trash Issues at Dump

Some people are leaving trash outside dumpsters and/or not closing the dumpster lids. This allows bears to spread the trash and makes a big mess, which others, mostly our township officials, have to clean up. Be responsible and put your bagged trash in the dumpsters AND securely close the lid. Thanks to Rolf Christiansen for creating new lighter wood lids with secure fasteners. Additional information can be found on Bearwise and MN DNR.
